= Hello, world! =

Presentation
I'm Pedro de Perdigão Lana, a lawyer and researcher from Curitiba, 🇧🇷 Brazil, and an activist on intellectual property rights and internet governance.

Current filiations and activities
Besides being a lawyer at Faria Santos Advocacia, I'm currently part of the board of:


 * 1) the Youth Observatory (a SIG/Special Interest Chapter from Internet Society), as the Head of the Editorial Commission;
 * 2) Creative Commons Brazil, as the Open Science coordinator;
 * 3) IODA (roughly translatable as the Observatory Institute of Copyright), as the secretary.

I'm also a member of the NCSG constituency from ICANN, the Brazilian chapter of the Internet Society, and the Brazilian Association of Intellectual Property (ABPI).

Main interests
Besides my legal work, I dedicate my time primarily to my research and coordination tasks in GEDAI (roughly translatable as "Research Group on Copyright and Industrial Rights") and IODA, a Brazilian study group and its institutional face. There, we promote the public interest perspective on intellectual property discussions and governmental debate. I'm deeply interested in new technologies, focusing on artificial intelligence, and their relation with IP rights.
