Isabelle Fernandes

Isabelle Fernandes is a Lecturer in Organic Chemistry and Senior Research Associate at the School of Chemistry, Pharmacy and Pharmacology, University of East Anglia. Her research focuses on organic materials synthesis, photophysics, and electronic applications, particularly involving porphyrins and phthalocyanines. She collaborates extensively with Saudi institutions on projects like the synthesis of novel chromophores and hybrid assemblies.

Key research interests include molecular design for optoelectronic devices, supramolecular self-assembly, and liquid crystalline materials. Her work bridges organic chemistry with applications in thin film transistors and energy transfer mechanisms.

Recent articles highlight studies on fluorescent protein chromophores, porphyrin-based crystal engineering, and parameter optimization in organic electronics. Collaborations with Prof. Cammidge underscore her role in training programs funded by the Royal Embassy of Saudi Arabia Cultural Bureau.

Her research portfolio includes 10 peer-reviewed articles and 8 active/completed projects, emphasizing Saudi-UK academic partnerships. No scientific awards are explicitly listed in the provided materials.
