About

Professor Dr. Carlton A. Taft earned the Master of Science (Physics) at the Universityof Illinois (USA) in 1969; the Phd in Physics at the Centro Brasileiro de Pesquisas Físicas(CBPF) in 1975 and did post-doctoral work as a periodic senior visitor to the ChemistryDepartment University of California Berkeley; Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory (USA) in1988-1993. He was hired at CBPF in 1976 and worked his way up to Full Professor. Heworks in multidisciplinary areas with focus on theoretical-computational simulationphysical/chemical/biological/engineering applications in Molecular and Material Sciences. Doctor Sergio R. de Lazaro (was born October 1977 in São Paulo Brazil) received hisundergraduate degree in Chemistry 1999 and his Ph.D. in Chemistry in 2006 from theFederal University of São Carlos (UFSCar) in Sao Paulo Brazil. Since 2007 is an adjunctprofessor of chemistry and materials science at the State University of Ponta Grossa(UFPG). His research interests are in the field of computational chemistry quantumchemistry surface morphology magnetic oxides ferroelectric dielectric superconductorsdensity functional theory (DFT) and applications of novel advanced materials from acombination of experimental and theoretical approaches.
