Bio: Since 2014, Marcos is an Assistant Professor at the Institut National des Sciences Appliquées (INSA) de Toulouse, and realizes his research activities in the Clément Ader Institute of the University of Toulouse. From 2013 until 2014 he was working as a Post-Doc in the Laboratories of Thermophysics at the Federal University of Santa Catarina, Brazil. In 2012 he obtained a PhD title from the Aix-Marseille University, where his main research was focused on "Thermally Driven Rarefied Gas Flows". This thesis was financed by a Marie-Curie Fellowship Grant (Seventh Framework Programme) within GASMEMS an European Initial Training Network. Marcos obtained his Master and Bachelor degrees from the University of Genoa, Italy.

PhD thesis: "Thermally Driven Rarefied Gas Flows" (download full PhD thesis).
