About
I am graduated in Chemical Engineering by the University of Coimbra (Portugal) and have a PhD in Physical Chemistry (Mass Spectrometry) by the Ecole Politechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (Switzerland).
I have worked for 11 years in the pharmaceutical industry (HOVIONE) as Quality Control and Quality Assurance Director. During that period, an intense collaboration with international pharmacopoeias (namely Japanese, European and United States) was developed, involving the submission of specific analytical procedures for the analysis and assay of tetracyclines and corticosteroids.
At the Madeira University since 1995, I was head of the Chemistry Department between 1996 and 2000 and the coordinator of the Madeira Chemistry Research Centre until 2006. Main scientific teaching areas are separation techniques, instrumental methods of analysis and quality control.
Scientific interests are directed to the application of Analytical Chemistry to natural products (namely the characterization of Madeira wines) and environment. The work carried out involves the influence of heat in the formation of aromatic compounds and study of ageing markers. I am currently supervising two PhD thesis on this subject and maintain special interest in the implementation of Good Laboratory Practice and Good Manufacturing Practice, as well as ISO 17025 and 9000 Quality Assurance Regulations.
