Abstract
Water-Based Epidemiology (WBE) is an epidemiological approach applied to track infectious disease prevalence as well as to provide early warning for chemical exposure and identify environmental exposure risk factors that drive non-communicable diseases and adverse ecosystem effects.
WBE has the potential to revolutionise healthcare and environmental sectors as it provides (near)real-time and cost-effective community-wide public and environmental health diagnostics. Urban water contains a complex mixture of human excretion products such endogenously formed metabolic residues, oxidative stress markers, genes, inflammation proteins, as well as exogenous stressors such as hazardous chemicals and pathogens. WBE postulates that the measurement of these specific biomarkers can provide valuable evidence of the quantity and type of xenobiotic chemical or biological agent to which the served population was exposed. Therefore, WBE can provide anonymized, comprehensive, and objective information on the exposure status of whole communities and the receiving environments as well as capture the effects of exposure and health outcomes.
This talk will focus on advances in WBE to deliver early warning systems for hazardous chemicals exposure risks and exposure health outcome associations. Examples of wide-scope water fingerprinting for environmental and public health determinants (e.g. household and industrial chemicals, pharmaceuticals and pesticides, their metabolites and endogenously formed stress chemicals) will be provided drawing from our regional work in South-West England Living Labs, as well as from our national study. WBE outputs will be discussed in the context of One Health actions. WBE provides a unique opportunity to enable research encompassing One Health ethos via (i) holistic evaluation of public and environmental health status, (ii) informing One Health actions (i.e., policy, technological or social interventions), and (iii) assessment of the effectiveness of mitigation strategies. Combining WBE with One Health actions can provide multiple benefits: from cost savings to more targeted and effective interventions leading to reduced environmental and public health burdens from hazardous chemicals.

Abstract:
Chiral amines are crucial intermediates in the synthesis of biologically active molecules, such as pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Given their significance, there is continuous interest in developing new, efficient, and stereoselective methods for their synthesis. In this context, we have worked on developing innovative methods for the α,β-difunctionalization of enamides using a synergistic two-step strategy that combines asymmetric organocatalysis with photoredox catalysis. A key aspect of this approach is the use of thiol as a transient reaction partner, which plays a vital role in enabling these transformations and allows for the synthesis of a diverse array of enantioenriched α,β-substituted amines.¹
Additionally, we successfully applied stereoselective and enantioselective photocatalytic processes to synthesize both α- and β-chiral amino boronic acids. In these reactions, α- and β-amino acids act as ideal linchpins, facilitating selective transformations and achieving high enantioselectivity.²
Finally, we report an efficient enantioselective synthesis of α-arylproanamides and α-arylpropionic acids through stereoselective desulfonative radical Truce-Smiles rearrangements. ³
In this presentation, we will highlight our work on these methodologies, focusing on their application in the synthesis of biologically active compounds and discussing their potential impact on the field.

Resumo:
A vida depende de interações moleculares únicas e/ou múltiplas, e de processos redox, dentro de uma única molécula e/ou em conjuntos moleculares e/ou sistemas bioquímicos adjacentes. Esses processos são essenciais para bioenergética, metabolismo, respiração celular, fotossíntese, neurotransmissão e equilíbrios baseados em transferências de elétrons apresentam papel fundamental para a saúde X doença. O oxigênio é vital, mas ao mesmo tempo, as espécies reativas de oxigênio e suas concentrações podem ser danosas aos organismos, tornando tênue a divisão entre o eustress (positivo) e o distress (negativo). Há necessidade de equilíbrio, para um processo salutar e há forte dependência de circunstâncias, dos compartimentos celulares e de múltiplos e complexos fatores.
A presente palestra visa examinar o estado da arte atual em relação a antioxidantes, seu uso indiscriminado, dificuldades, vantagens, desvantagens, perspectivas e pontos de vista em torno de seu uso na medicina redox, em doenças baseadas em estresse oxidativo e sua modulação em direção a aspectos benéficos. Abordará principalmente o desenvolvimento de estratégias, novos medicamentos, seu design e seus mecanismos moleculares de ação. Isso envolverá os fundamentos da transferência de elétrons, a fusão de testes analíticos e farmacológicos, o uso de modelos mais confiáveis para uma melhor abordagem, considerando ensaios in vivo e pesquisas clínicas, com suplementações nutracêuticas. Ênfase será dada à dificuldade de integrar várias áreas do conhecimento: medicina, eletroquímica, analítica, química supramolecular, materiais, bioquímica na perspectiva de desenvolver terapias de fato assertivas.

Abstract:
Imagine a world where all segments of society demanded environmentally benign climate neutral products! Imagine if all consumers, all retailers and all manufacturers insisted on buying and selling only non-toxic truly sustainable materials! The unfortunate reality is that, even if this situation were to occur, our knowledge of materials science and chemistry would allow us to provide only a small fraction of the necessary products and materials that our economy is based upon. Unfortunately, the way we learn and teach chemistry and materials science in academia is for the most part void of any information regarding mechanisms of toxicity and environmental harm. Green Chemistry is a science that seeks to reduce or eliminate the use of hazardous materials at the design stage of a materials process. It has been demonstrated that materials and products CAN be designed with negligible impact on human health and the environment while still being economically competitive and successful in the marketplace. This presentation will describe the history and background of Green Chemistry and discuss the opportunities for the next generation of materials designers to create a safer and more sustainable future.

Prediction of New Chemical Entities

Abstract:
It is fascinating to explore and understand the chemical structure of molecules. The chemical structure is determined not only by the elements that make up the molecule but also by how those atoms are connected and arranged in space. Thus, the chemical structure and the connection between atoms—the chemical bond—are intimately related. Any change in the spatial arrangement of the nuclei will alter the nature of the chemical bond, and vice versa. Of course, there are established rules for determining molecular structure, particularly in organic molecules. But ask introductory or even graduate chemistry students to provide an example of a pentacoordinate carbon molecule or a planar tetracoordinate carbon. The likelihood of getting an example is close to zero. However, the chemical literature is full of examples of such non-classical carbon molecules, and this extends to any main group element. In this talk, the structure and bonding of some non-classical carbon (planar tetra- or hexacoordinate carbon), boron (fluxional boron clusters), and other main group element structures with even planar pentadecacoordinate atoms will be discussed.

Resumo:
Sistemas catalíticos heterogeneizados apresentam diversas vantagens, como a viabilização da reutilização dos catalisadores, o aumento da estabilidade destes, e a melhoria da seletividade dos sistemas, entre outros benefícios. Nas reações de polimerização, a heterogeneização dos complexos em materiais inorgânicos oferece vantagens, como a possibilidade de empregar menor quantidade de solvente, o uso de reatores em fase gasosa, a promoção do fenômeno de réplica morfológica e a produção de polímeros com propriedades únicas. Serão apresentadas estratégias de síntese de catalisadores heterogeneizados em suportes inorgânicos e suas caracterizações. Além disso, serão discutidas as aplicações desses sistemas catalíticos heterogeneizados em diferentes suportes, com o objetivo de melhorar a atividade e a seletividade dos produtos de interesse em reações de oligomerização e polimerização de olefinas, bem como na cicloadição de CO2 a epóxidos. O desenvolvimento de diferentes suportes será abordado, visando o aprimoramento da atividade e seletividade dos produtos de interesse. Também serão discutidas estratégias para melhorar a acidez e a acessibilidade de vários materiais inorgânicos com porosidade controlada.

Abstract:
Cancer remains an insidious global adversary, defying even the most advanced therapeutic interventions. Conventional treatments - comprising surgery, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, or immunotherapy - while often effective, are typically associated with severe side effects, the emergence of drug resistance, relapses, and metastasis. To address these limitations, my research group focuses on leveraging the unique catalytic properties of metal-based agents to pioneer innovative therapeutic strategies. By merging the disciplines of inorganic catalysis and medicinal chemistry, we explore the untapped potential of metal complexes to induce a strong therapeutic effect at low drug doses with novel mechanisms of action.
This presentation covers two strategies involving the design, chemical synthesis, and biological evaluation of novel metal complexes that operate through unprecedented mechanisms of action. Within the first strategy, metal complexes that catalytically convert glutathione into glutathione disulfide are investigated, strategically dismantling cancer cells' defense systems and rendering them acutely vulnerable to oxidative stress, which culminates in cell death.[1-2] Within the second strategy, metal complexes are introduced as photocatalysts, capable of generating reactive oxygen species upon light activation for highly precise tumor targeting.[3-4] These approaches exemplify the transformative potential of metal-based catalysis in cancer cells towards overcoming the limitations of current treatments and opening new avenues in the fight against cancer.

Abstract:
In the last decade fluorine-containing compounds (FCC) have become the recognised emerging species in respect of health and environment. Small amounts of fluorine are naturally present in water, air, plants and animals. The two most important problems related to the introduction of synthetic fluorine compounds, their detection and impact assessment, will be discussed. One of the most emerging problems is the widespread use of synthetic fluorine compounds, including polytetrafluoroethylene – a synthetic polymer of carbon and fluorine, one of the most widely used chemicals, which can be transformed into micro-plastics. The second issue that will be discussed is the increasingly common use of fluorinated drugs. On the one hand, the introduction of fluorinated drugs into medical practice represented a significant advancement in the treatment of various diseases. Fluorinated drugs, characterized by the presence of a fluorine atom, possess specific chemical properties such as increased lipophilicity and stability, which contribute to an extended half-life of the active substance in the body, enhancing their therapeutic efficacy. However, due to their specific nature, fluorinated drugs may also be associated with potential side effects and risks for patients. Their strong chemical activity and ability to interact with various biological structures in the body can lead to adverse effects.Finally, building non-routine scenarios using a multi-method approach will be shown by examples of tracking the migration of micro-fluoroplastics in the environment and the metabolism of fluorinated drugs in the body.

Abstract:
Photopolymerization technology has been developing steadily benefiting from the characteristics of spatial and temporal controllability, environmental protection, and efficient processes.[1,2] However, the polymerization in shadow areas remains a huge challenge. In this work, new photoinitiating systems for radical, cationic or hybrid polymerization will be presented for different spectral ranges: near UV, visible, Near Infrared. This work will be extended to dual-cure processes as well as photopolyaddition reactions. Better depths of cure can be obtained. Some applications for coatings, 3D printing and photocomposites will be provided. The mechanical properties of the generated polymers/composites will be also investigated.
