Daniela Zanchet

Prof. Daniela Zanchet is an Associate Professor of the Inorganic Chemistry Department - University of Campinas, Brazil. She obtained her bachelor’s degree in Chemical Engineering from the Federal University of Paraná and master and PhD degrees in Physics from the University of Campinas. She worked as a post-doctorate fellow at the University of California, Berkeley and as a visiting researcher at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). She also worked as a researcher at the Brazilian Synchrotron Light Technology-LNLS for more than ten years where she coordinated the initiative to developing dedicated instrumentation for in situ studies of catalysts at LNLS, supported by Petrobras. Her group focuses on the development and study of heterogeneous catalysts, based on the exploration of model nanometric systems and advanced characterization tools. She has experience in the field of nanomaterials and heterogeneous catalysts, targeting hydrogen production, CO2 and CH4 conversion and up-grading of biomass-derivatives.
