Fábio was born in Recife, Brazil and graduated in physics in the Federal University of Pernambuco (UFPE). He obtained his masters in inflationary cosmology in 2010 and his PhD on scattering of fields around black holes in 2014, both at UFPE under the supervision of prof. Bruno Carneiro da Cunha. In his thesis, it was proposed a new way to obtain scattering amplitudes and quasinormal modes of 4D Kerr-de Sitter black holes using the theory of isomonodromic deformations.

After that, he went on for a postdoctoral position at the International Institute of Physics in Natal, Brazil, during 4 years. During this period, he gave contributions on the connection between conformal field theory and isomonodromic deformations. With these results, he and his collaborators obtained analytic expansions of quasinormal modes of 4D Kerr-de Sitter black holes. He also collaborated with profs. Ricardo Troncoso and Alfredo Pérez from CECs on the connection of Lifshitz field theories with black holes in three-dimensional spacetimes, integrable systems and number theory.

Fábio has joined CECs in October 2019 as a postdoctoral researcher. He continue his investigation on the integrable structure of gravitational theories and its connections with conformal field theory, number theory and integrable systems. He is also interested to pursue applications of integrability techniques in 2D condensed matter systems and spin chains.
