I am so so happy that one of the best students I have had the pleasure of working with throughout the years, Ivan Almeida, beautifully defended his FAPESP-funded PhD today, entitled “Winds and feedback from supermassive black holes accreting at low rates”. This was a long journey where I learned more from Ivan than him from me. Ivan finished his graduate school with many first author papers spanning numerical simulations of winds, analytical models, and data modeling using different techniques.

Ivan got multiple postdoc offers, with Asia and Europe competing for him. In the end, his next step will be at Newcastle University. A dramatic change of scenery compared to São Paulo. We wish you a productive and happy career.
