I am a Chemist, MSc and PhD in Physical Chemistry specialised in Colloidal Science, Nanomaterials and Soft Matter. During my MSc and PhD at the Universidade Federal do Paraná (UFPR), I worked on the structural and physicochemical characterization of polysaccharides of Acacia gums from different species, establishing important structure-to-property relationships to guide potential applications. I attended to a one year internship at the Advanced Photon Source (United States) studying the dynamical properties of polysaccharide gels at different lenghtscales. As a Postdoc at Universidade Estadual de Campinas (UNICAMP), I developed protocols for the surface modification of magnetic nanoparticles resulting in enhanced interfacial properties. I have formulated different magnetically responsive smart systems, such as double emulsions and also thermoresponsive microfilaments and cilia during a research exchange period at Université de Paris in France. My research interests are related to nanomaterials, multiresponsive colloidal systems, self-assembly and instrumentation / characterization techniques. (Source: Lattes Curriculum)

This project aims at the preparation of magnetic nanoparticles of iron oxide covered by polymers with different chemical features, whose segregation may lead to formation of Janus particles. These Janus particles should display interesting association properties, responding to different stimuli, providing a plataform for the development of new functional materials. (AU)
The proposed project aims the development of nanomaterials with specific and multiple functionalities. The idea is to prepare superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles and functionalize their surfaces with different phosphonic acid-terminated polymers, combining the thermoresponsive PNIPAM (poly (N-isopropylacrylamide)) and PEO (poly(ethyleneoxide)) to modulate the nanoparticles interfac…
