Maria Lurdes Felsner, Associate Professor at State University of Midwest (UNICENTRO) and at State University of Londrina (UEL) ā€“ Chemistry Department. Completed PhD in Analytical Chemistry in 2001 by SĆ£o Paulo University (USP) ā€“ Chemistry Institute, Master in Physicochemistry in 1997 by State University of JĆŗlio Mesquita Filho (UNESP) and the degree in Chemistry in 1995 at Regional University of Blumenau. Published 50 articles in journals and 8 book chapters. Coordinated/participated in 8 research projects. Supervised/co-supervised 7 PhD/ 8 MsD thesis. Her research work has been focused on creation of new analytical methodologies for composition analysis of different matrices adopting sophisticated and reliable statistical tools, as well computer vision and machine learning tools. Major areas of research during the last years include: (1) optimization and validation methods for different matrices, especially foods and environmental samples by electroanalytical, chromatographic and spectrometric techniques with lower environmental impact; (2) development of new strategies for classification and prediction of components/contaminants/adulterants in foods and natural products adopting the computer vision and machine learning tools.
