Paulo Henrique Março

Professor Paulo Henrique Março, Ph.D. holds a degree in Chemistry from the State University of Londrina (2003), a masters degree in Chemistry of Natural Resources from the same institution (2004), and a Ph.D. in Chemistry from the State University of Campinas (2009). Part of his doctoral research was conducted at the Spanish National Research Council (CSIC) in Barcelona, Spain (20072008). He has expertise in Chemistry, focusing on optical analysis methods combined with chemometric techniques, with an emphasis on linear chemometric methods applied to first- and second-order data, such as Principal Component Analysis (PCA), Multivariate Curve Resolution with Alternating Least Squares (MCR-ALS), discriminant analyses, and multivariate calibration.Dr. Paulo Henrique Março completed postdoctoral research on resolution methods applied to food sciences at AgroParisTech, Paris, France (20092010), and on chemometric methods applied to comprehensive two-dimensional chromatography data at the State University of Campinas (20102011), where he also served as a research collaborator during that period. In 2019, he spent one month as a visiting professor at Dalhousie University, Halifax, Canada, enhancing his knowledge of Projection Pursuit techniques. Between 2022 and 2023, he undertook postdoctoral research at the University of Paris-Saclay, supervised by Professors Ali Tfayli and Douglas N. Rutledge, followed by a research stint in Barcelona at the Spanish National Research Council under the supervision of Professor Romà Tauler.Currently, Professor Paulo Henrique Março is based in the Department of Food and Chemical Engineering (DAAEQ) at the Federal University of Technology Paraná (UTFPR), Campus Campo Mourão. He serves as a Professor and Researcher in the Graduate Program in Food Technology (PPGTA), conducting research on food quality monitoring using optical methods associated with chemometric techniques. His ongoing projects focus on studying the behavior of chemical species in food through multivariate data and applying chemometric methods to analyze the resulting information.
