Lais Cristine Lopes

Graduated in Chemistry from the State University of Maringá (2011), with a master's and doctorate in Chemistry from the Federal University of Paraná (2014 and 2018, respectively). Completed a postdoctoral fellowship at the Institute of Chemistry of UNESP (2019-2024), including a period as a visiting researcher at the International Iberian Nanotechnology Laboratory (INL) in Portugal (2022). Her main research interests include: a) two-dimensional (2D) nanomaterials and devices, with an emphasis on graphene; b) investigation of the quantum properties of graphene and low-dimensional materials using electrical and electrochemical spectroscopic techniques; c) development of electrochemical biosensors for diagnosis and molecular affinity assays. Currently, she is a partner and co-founder of Qnity, a startup dedicated to the application of quantum electrochemistry in affinity assays for drug discovery. (Fonte: Currículo Lattes)
