-**Informação:**
+My main research is in the areas of quantum information and foundations of quantum mechanics.  My research interests include: photonic quantum computers, measurement-based quantum computation, restricted classes of quantum computers, quantum non-locality and contextuality.
-My main research is in the areas of quantum information and foundations of quantum mechanics. More specifically, I like to establish connections between these two fields. Among other things, I’ve done work on [[http://arxiv.org/find/quant-ph/1/AND+au:+Galvao+abs:+Wigner/0/1/0/2004,2005/0/1|discrete Wigner functions]], non-locality, contextuality and  [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Communication_complexity|quantum communication complexity]]. I am also interested in different models for quantum computation, especially measurement-based quantum computation.
-The first chapters of [[http://arxiv.org/abs/quant-ph/0212124|my Ph.D. thesis]] include an introduction to some issues on foundations of quantum mechanics and quantum information. I have also written [[http://profs.if.uff.br/ernesto/wiki/doku.php/livro|a short book about quantum computing (in Portuguese)]], at a very introductory level, aimed at a general non-technical audience.

 A complete list of my scientific publications can be found [[http://arxiv.org/find/quant-ph/1/au:+galvao/0/1/0/all/0/1|here]].
-Currently I am supervising PhD student Raphael Dias on a project on measurement-based quantum computation, and PhD student Daniel Jost Brod on a project studying the relationship between quantum statistics and classical simulability.
+I currently supervise PhD students André Oestereich and Allan David Cony Tosta.
