Biography

Graduated in Chemistry Bachelor's degree with technological attribution in Materials, Master and PhD in Physical Chemistry at University of São Paulo, USP, Brazil. During his professional tragetory, he worked in an Academic Undergraduate Research position in the Polymer's Group Prof. Bernhard Gross at the São Carlos Institute of Physics, USP; a R&D Intership at the Research and Innovation Center from Rhodia SOLVAY Group, at the Paulínia's industrial complex; and was hired as Assistant Professor in the Department of Chemical and Food Engineering at the University Center of Barretos Educational Foundation, UNIFEB, Brazil. His PhD was developed at the Brazilian Agricultural Research Corporation, Embrapa Instrumentation, São Paulo, being also granted for a Research Technician position in the same institution. A period abroad as visiting researcher during his PhD was conducted at the Nanomedicines & Translational Drug Delivery Group of the Institute for Research and Innovation in Health (i3S), University of Porto, Portugal. Afterward, he was selected for developing a Postdoctoral Fellowship jointly with the Optics and Photononics Group at the Federal University of Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil. Right after, he assumed a Postdoctoral Assistant Researcher position in the BioTeam Group of L'Institut de chimie et procédés pour l'énergie, l'environnement et la santé (ICPEES), Université de Strasbourg, UNISTRA, France. More recently, he carried his research interests related to the fields of Polymer Chemistry and Biofunctional Materials aiming for biomedical and environmental applications as First Level Doctorate Researcher at the BioPol4fun Aveiro Institute of Materials, Department of Chemistry, CICECO, University of Aveiro, Portugal (2023-2024). Nowadays, he assumed the position of Senior Scientist at the startup Naturbeads, located in the city of Bath, United Kingdom, where he works in the Research and Development sector involving cellulose microbeads.
