Personal statement
My research is primarily focused on media trust and news consumption, adopting both qualitative and quantitative methods, including survey analysis and in-depth interviews. I was a Post-Doctoral Research Fellow at the Reuters Institute for the Study of Journalism, at the University of Oxford, working on the Trust in News Project. I am now a Research Associate to RISJ and part of the Steering Committe of the Scottish Political Communication Network.
I have a Ph.D. in Political Science from the Federal University of Paran谩, Brazil, and was Visiting research student at the University of Antwerp, Belgium. My research interests also include digital media & elections and Brazilian politics.

- The Trust in News Project looks at trust in digital news in Brazil, India, the United Kingdom, and the United States, markets which account for more than one billion internet users and a wide range of media systems and contexts.
The project involves qualitative and quantitative research, and ongoing engagement with journalists and other stakeholders. Its goal is to understand what drives trust for audiences in different contexts, and to identify evidence-based recommendations for publishers and platforms. - 01-Jan-2020
