Nominator's project description

Professor Da Silva Queiroz is internationally recognized for his outstanding research in particle and astroparticle physics. He has made significant contributions to our understanding of dark matter in the Universe and to physics beyond the Standard Model. Professor Da Silva Queiroz integrates diverse theoretical approaches with the latest experimental results and proposes innovative experimental tests. During his stay in Germany, he will collaborate with scientists in Heidelberg exploring the nature of dark matter and on understanding the particles and forces that shape the Universe.
