Dr. Vinicius Rangel Campos obtained his Chemistry degree from the Universidade Federal Fluminense (UFF) in 2009. He finished his MSc in Chemistry in 2011 and his PhD in Chemistry in 2015 at Universidade Federal Fluminense, oriented by Prof. Anna Claudia Cunha and Prof. Vitor Francisco Ferreira. During his PhD in Chemistry, he had the opportunity to participate in the interuniversity exchange doctorate program at Universidade de Aveiro (Portugal) in the group of Professor J. A. S. Cavaleiro (2012). In 2015, he received a postdoctoral fellowship from funding agency FAPERJ to carry out research in the group of Professor Jerson Lima Silva at the Institute of Medical Biochemistry, Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro. Since 2016, he has been an adjunct professor and researcher in the Organic Chemistry Department at Universidade Federal Fluminense. He currently coordinates the Heterocycle Synthesis Laboratory (LASINTHET), and some of his research experiences and skills are centered in the design, synthesis, and spectroscopic characterization of nitrogen and other heterocycles such as quinone, 1,2,3-triazoles, isoquinolines, dihidropirimidinones, carbohydrates, etc., with potential biological and technological applications (antiviral, anticancer, antibacterial, anti-corrosion, and anti-fouling). Through his research interest on the design and synthesis of new bioactive compounds, he has published ~ 36 papers and review articles in international journals with an h-index of 13.
