Luiz Fernando Gorup

Luiz Fernando Gorup completed his undergraduate degree in Chemistry (2008), master's (2010), doctorate (2014), and postdoctoral fellowship (2015) at the Federal University of São Carlos (UFSCar). He undertook an international internship during his Ph.D. at the Université de Rennes, France (2011), and a postdoctoral fellowship at the University of Michigan (2016). Additionally, he served as a visiting professor at UFGD (2018-2020), FURG (2021-2021), UNIFAL (2021-2023), and UFPel (2024-2024). He is a researcher at the Center for the Development of Functional Materials (CEPID-CDMF), the National Institute of Science and Technology in Nanometric Materials (INCTMN), and the Interdisciplinary Laboratory of Electrochemistry and Ceramics (LIEC-UFSCar). He has experience in teaching, research, outreach, and innovation activities, having worked as a researcher and lecturer at the undergraduate and graduate levels at UFSCar, UFGD, FURG, UFPel, and UNIFAL-MG. He has coordinated and participated in numerous research and outreach projects and is the author and co-author of more than 47 articles published in international journals with rigorous editorial policies. Additionally, he has research projects, outreach projects, 16 book chapters, 4 patents, participation in graduate thesis committees, and has delivered mini-courses, lectures, and roundtable discussions. He acts as an evaluator for INEP (on-site course evaluation commission), a consultant for the Ministry of Agriculture and Supply, an ad-hoc reviewer for projects (FAPESP, UFPE, UFAM), and a reviewer for international journals. He has extensive experience in nanotechnology, working on interdisciplinary projects focused on functional materials, with projects approved by CNPq, FAPERGS, and dozens of partnerships. His research lines aim at the synthesis and application of functional materials, focusing on antimicrobial activity, electrical, sensory, photocatalytic, and magnetic properties. His areas of interest and expertise are in materials science, especially in the green synthesis of nanoparticles (soft solution processing), hybrid materials, biomaterials, biomimetics, nanocomposites, nanostructures, supraparticles, and suprastructures.- ---Phone: +55 (16) 98100-3030; Emails: lfgorup@gmail.com; (Source: Lattes Curriculum)
