Wendel Alves

Bioanalytical Chemistry has experimented with huge progress in the last years due to its importance in many areas. The great advances in techniques applied to bioanalysis have been achieved revolutionizing the way to obtain information about a biological sample. Many recent kinds of research have been focused on developing analytical tools to reduce costs giving access to most people. In this context analytical devices with the concept of point-of-care-testing have received great efforts from many research groups. The workshop will present and discuss the contributions made by INCTBio (National Institute of Science and Technology of Bioanalytics) to the advances in bioanalytical chemistry. The contributions of INCTBio to the advances in biosensors, separations, and spectroscopy will be presented in different talks, which will be discussed in terms of perspectives on future bioanalytical chemistry.
