Kassio Lima

Nowadays, I am a head of the Biological Chemistry and Chemometrics research group at Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte created in 2011 which we use different chemometrics approach in spectroscopy and chromatography date such as Near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS), Mid-Infrared spectroscopy-Attenuated Total Reflectance (ATR), Excitation-Emission Matrix (EEM) spectroscopy, Liquid-Chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry (LC-MS) and Gas Chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry (GC-MS). The chemometrics tools of my interest are: principal component analysis (PCA), linear discriminant analysis (LDA), partial least squares (PLS), orthogonal partial least squares (OPLS), Multivariate Curve Resolution (MCR), Parallel factor analysis (PARAFAC), Successive Projections Algorithm – Linear Discriminant Analysis (SPA-LDA), Genetic Algorithm- Linear Discriminant Analysis (GA-LDA) among others. Research targets are biological interest, particularly in understanding of systems studied within chemistry and Biology. I have a broad knowledge of chemometrics, chromatography and metabolite- profiling, specially strong coding skills in MATLAB.
