Luís Moreira Gonçalves, chemistry professor in the Chemistry Institute of the University of São Paulo (IQ-USP) in São Paulo. He holds a BSc and a PhD in chemistry (both from the University of Porto), as well as BSc in medical sciences and MSc in medicine (both from the University of Minho). He previously worked as post-doctoral researcher in the Faculty of Sciences of the University of Porto, with several different research interests including psychiatry, the development of biosensors for medical applications, molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs), electrochemistry, food quality and research fields combined chemistry and medicine in general. He has ca. 90 published papers (more than 1600 citations, h-index 22) and 4 patents, he has won several prizes including the Young Researcher in Electrochemistry attributed by Portuguese Electrochemical Society. He has done academic stays in the Catalan Institute of Chemical Research (Tarragona, Spain), the Chemical Technical Institute and the Charles University (Prague, Czech Republic), University of Oxford (UK) and UNESP (Araraquara, Brazil). Moreover, as a medical student, he did a 4-month voluntary stay in the ER service of the Hospital Beneficiência Portuguesa (Araraquara, Brazil) and was an observer for 3 months in the John Radcliffe Hospital (Oxford, UK). He is member of the Portuguese Electrochemical Society (SPE), Portuguese Medical Association (Ordem dos Médicos), and Regional Medical Council of the São Paulo State (CREMESP, Brazil).

Thermoelectrochemistry is a simple, scalable technique for the direct electrochemical conversion of thermal energy into useful electricity. It is driven by the entropy change associated with a redox process, resulting in a temperature dependence of the electrode potential. The greater this dependence the more efficient the power generation through this method. If there is a temperature di…
This project aims to demonstrate the potential of the combination of molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) with innovative microextraction techniques for sample preparation, namely gas-diffusion microextraction (GDME). Both techniques are relevant in analytical chemistry due to their selectivity, simplicity and ability to obtain enrichment factors. Their combination may have synergistic r…
In this project it is intended to develop molecular printing polymers (MIPs) by electropolymerization for the development of portable analytical sensors, aiming the analysis of chemical compounds, specifically, calcium channel blockers, such as diltiazem. Diltiazem is a drug that belongs to the group of benzothiazepines, a type of calcium channel blocker that acts as a vasodilator, reduce…
This project aims to develop molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) by electropolymerization for the development of portable sensors for the analysis of relevant compounds, namely penicillin. Penicillin is one of the most important medications in the basic health care system. Its determination is important because, as it is eliminated by urine, it causes changes in the terrestrial and wate…
The development of paper analytical devices has been growing mainly due to its features such as simplicity and low cost. Several strategies for the development of these devices have been developed in recent years. This type of electrode is usually manufactured using the application of external reagents on the paper, such as inks or nanoparticles. In this paper we intend to use one of thes…
