Guto Paiva-Silva

PhD candidate at the Federal University of Minas Gerais (Brasil) and currently a visiting researcher at the University of Lausanne (Switzerland). My research focuses on petrochronological constraints to investigate the geodynamic evolution of the Raspas Metamorphic Complex (SW Ecuador), with broader interests in high-grade metamorphism, ocean–continent subduction, and tectonic processes. I am also engaged in teaching, outreach, and science communication, with a focus on inclusive education and diversity in geoscience. Feel free to write to me at gutopaivasilva@gmail.com
