The curricula of the Lattes Platform have been the object of study of several works. These curricula have relevant information for both quantitative and qualitative analyzes of Brazilian researchers. This work aims to analyze the academic genealogy of researchers or group of researchers with curricula registered in the platform. For this, based on the data of advices and supervisions identified in the curricula, it is possible to construct trees of researchers that characterize in a hierarchical way the genealogy of its history of your advices as well as that of its oriented ones.
