Brazil Chemistry Association

However, the diffusion of GC in Brazil had the Brazilian Chemistry Association (ABQ) as one of its main sources and, more recently, the Brazilian Chemistry Society (SBQ), through its scientific Journals, networks and meetings. The pioneers of this diffusion were Lenardao and colleagues, Prado and...

In 1967, Walter Szarek returned to Queen s University as a faculty member, after a three-year absence in the United States, and was asked to direct J. K. s entire research group while J. K. was on sabbatical leave in Brazil and, subsequently, South Africa. This marked the beginning of the very close association and collaboration between J. K. and Walter Szarek, a partnership that continued until J. K. s death. The fruit of this close relationship was recorded in the numerous publications that ensued. These were primarily in the area of synthetic carbohydrate chemistry, and involved such topics as synthesis and... 

Tiago A. S. Brandao is from Porto Alegre, Brazil. He received his B.S. in pharmacy from Federal University of Santa Catarina (Florianopolis, Brazil) in 2000 and his Ph.D. in chemistry from the same University in 2007. During the course of his Ph.D. he worked in the development of models for PPs under the supervision of Professor Faruk Nome. Since 2007, he has been a postdoctoral fellow in the group of Professor Alvan C. Hengge at the Utah State University, where he has been working on a project that aims to understand how protein movement in protein tyrosine PPs is associated with catalysis. His major research interests are in the area of mechanism and catalysis of phosphoric and carboxylic ester reactions by enzymatic systems and their models. 

Sao Paulo, at Sao Carlos, Brazil. He is employed at the University of Sao Paulo since 1981 where actually he is Full Professor of Physical Chemistry (2009) at the Institute of Chemistry of Sao Carlos. He made a post-doctorate at the University of Ottawa, Canada (1988-1990) and was a Visiting Professor at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, USA (1998-1999). He has published more than 130 articles in international scientific journals. He is author of four book chapters and one book. He had supervised 18 Ph.D. thesis and 21 M.Sc. thesis. He has delivered 87 international conferences. The main research areas are electro-catalysis, fuel cells, and alcohol electro-oxidation. He is the Associate Editor of the journal Electrocatalysis, published by Springer.
