Marcelo Hilario

Visiting Assistant Professor of Mathematics, NYU Shanghai

Marcelo R. Hilario is a Visiting Assistant Professor at NYU Shanghai. Prior, he was an assistant professor at The Federal University of Minas Gerais (UFMG) in Belo Horizonte, Brazil. He received his Ph.D. in mathematics in 2011 at The Brazilian National Institute for Pure and Applied Mathematics (IMPA), in Rio de Janeiro.

His current research concentrates in probability theory and stochastic processes with emphasis in random media, percolation theory and random walks in dynamical random environments. He was a visiting research fellow in the Mathematical Physics group at the University of Geneva in Switzerland from August 2014 to October 2015 under the supervision of Prof. Hugo DuminilCopin.
