Main Focus
My research activities are funded by the Swedish Radiation Safety Authority (SSM) and the Swedish Research Council. Since October 2023, my research activities have been conducted at the Computational Materials Design group at the Max-Planck-Institute for Sustainable Materials, funded by the International postdoc grant from the Swedish Research Council.
Curriculum Vitae
2021 Doctor of Philosophy. Chemistry with specialisation in Materials Chemistry, Uppsala University, Uppsala, Sweden.
2020 Licentiate of Philosophy. Chemistry with specialisation in Materials Chemistry, Uppsala University, Uppsala, Sweden.
2016 Master’s degree in Applied Chemistry, State University of Ponta Grossa, Ponta Grossa, Brazil.
2013 Bachelor’s degree in Chemical Technology with an emphasis in Environmental Chemistry, State University of Ponta Grossa, Ponta Grossa, Brazil.
I have experience in first-principles methods, particularly Density Functional Theory applied to materials modelling. My role as a postdoc is to (I) apply first-principle atomistic modelling of essential sensitizing processes that would render load-bearing nickel-base alloys prone to stress corrosion cracking in nuclear power applications and (ii) investigate hydrogen embrittlement using atomistic modelling.
