Alfredo Carvalho is an Assistant Professor at the Chemistry Department of the University of Évora, Portugal. He obtained his Ph.D. in Chemistry at the University of Porto in 2001, conducting theoretical studies on electron transfer reactions in aqueous solution. Since then his scientific interests have been somewhat varied:

  • adsorption phenomena and molecular interactions between small organic molecules and mineral surfaces (mostly clay minerals)
  • testing/use of adsorption processes for environmental applications, namely the removal of pharmaceutical pollutants from aqueous media
  • biomembranes and their interactions with small peptides and drugs
  • non-linear optical properties of organometallic complexes
