Dr Janaina S. Santos received her PhD at the Federal University of Sao Carlos (UFSCar-Brazil) studying the dielectric breakdown phenomena in anodic oxide films (2012). From 2012 to 2014, she was a researcher at the National Institute of Space Research (INPE) and the Department of Chemistry at the Federal University of Alfenas (UNIFAL). She joined the Department of Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics as a researcher in 2014 and served as University Lecturer at the same institution (2017-2019). Since 2020, she has been researcher in the Department of Chemical Engineering at Chulalongkorn University in Bangkok, Thailand. Her current research interests include the synthesis of nanostructured anodic oxides for electrocatalytic, photocatalytic and biomaterial applications.
