Book: "An Introduction to Synchrotron Radiation: Techniques and Applications, 2nd Edition." by Philip Willmott
Always I was very motivated with chemistry, first was locking to minerals and rocks as an example of natural chemistry, and later focusing my interested in light, chemistry, and nanomaterials preparation. I commenced my academic journey by obtaining a degree in Chemistry, with a keen focus on Inorganic Chemistry, from the prestigious University of Santiago de Compostela (founded in 1495) in Spain. This foundation paved the way for my subsequent pursuit of a PhD in the same specialization, which I successfully completed in 1999 under the guidance of Prof. Rufina Bastida de la Calle and Prof. Adolfo Rodríguez Rodríguez. During this pivotal phase of my doctoral research, I had the privilege of collaborating with ITQB NOVA in Oeiras, Portugal. My research there primarily focused on the intricate thermodynamics of metal complexes. Additionally, I enriched my expertise by working alongside Prof. Fernando Pina at the Photochemistry and Supramolecular Chemistry Group, Department of Chemistry FCT NOVA. Together, we explored the nuances of the spectroscopy and photochemistry of macrocyclic complexes and molecular devices. Upon completing my PhD, I transitioned to a post-doctoral role at FCT NOVA. This enriching period, which lasted until March 2003, was marked by my collaboration with Prof. Pina. Our joint endeavours were bolstered by several competitive grants, most notably the Marie Curie Grant associated with the Network Molecular Level Devices and Machines. From 2003 to 2008, I secured a position as an Assistant Researcher at REQUIMTE. In 2009, I was awarded the distinguished Isidro Parga Pondal Researcher-Lecturer position at the University of Vigo, Galicia, Spain. It was here that I laid the foundations for the Laboratory of Nanosynthesis, Chemosensors and Spectroscopy, which subsequently integrated into the renowned BIOSCOPE Research Group. 2012 marked my return to Portugal, where I took up the role of Assistant Professor in the Department of Chemistry at FCT NOVA. Under my leadership, the Laboratory of Nanosynthesis, Chemosensors, and Spectroscopy witnessed significant expansion in terms of state-of-the-art equipment and a talented team of PhD students, post-docs, and researchers. My dedication and contributions to the field were recognised in 2017 when I achieved my Habilitation in Inorganic Analytical Chemistry. A year later, the depth of my expertise and the impact of my contributions to the Department of Chemistry were unequivocally acknowledged, culminating in my elevation to the position of Associate Professor. This promotion stands as a resounding affirmation of my unwavering dedication and significant contributions to the broader field of Chemistry. In January 2024 I got the upgrade to the Full Professor position in Chemistry. I was during these time Invited Professor and Researcher in the University Complutense of Madrid, University of Strasbourg in France, University of Bologna in Italy, University of Sao Paulo in Brazil among others. I have authored more than 300 publications in international peer-reviewed journals, amassing over 7482 citations by January 2024 (By Scopus & Google Scholar, H index = 45). A significant 60% of these articles have been featured in the first-quartile, high-impact journals. Notably, my work has been recognised in journals such as a ChemRev (IF: 72.087), Coord. Chem.Rev (IF: 24.833), J. Am. Chem Soc (IF: 14.695), J. Hazardous Materials (IF: 14.224), BCM Medicine (IF: 11.150), J Mat. Chem A (IF: 10.737), Biomaterials (IF: 10.273), Nano Research (IF: 10.269), J. Coll. Int. Sci. (IF: 9.965), and J. Mat. Chem. C (IF: 7.393). My scholarly contributions extend beyond research articles, with 28 editorial papers in prestigious peer-reviewed journals, 16 book chapters, and an additional 7 chapters authored by me. My editorial roles include positions at, Dyes and Pigments (Associate Editor), Journal of Integrated OMICS (Editor in Chief), and Materials (Editor in Chief Session)B. I have served on the editorial board for 63 books, ensuring their academic rigour and relevance. I have successfully guided 12 PhD students to completion, with an additional four currently under my supervision. I have mentored 12 postdoctoral researchers, overseen the professional growth of 5 researchers through various programs, and urtured the academic pursuits of 19 master´s students and 8 post-docs. In 2010, I played a pivotal role in founding the PROTEOMASS Scientific Society, a pioneering start-up dedicated to organizing international conferences, courses, and serving as a global mass spectrometry laboratory facility.
