Samuel Jacques André Guieu

Samuel Jacques André Guieu is a Junior Researcher in the Department of Chemistry at the University of Aveiro, Portugal. He holds a PhD in Organic Chemistry from École Normale Supérieure (Paris) and conducted postdoctoral research at the University of British Columbia (Canada) and the University of Aveiro. His research focuses on luminescent organic crystals, fluorophores for cellular imaging, and supramolecular chemistry. Key collaborators include Professors Artur M.S. Silva, João Rocha, and Mark J. MacLachlan.

Guieu’s academic journey includes a French ‘Aggregation de Sciences Physiques,’ an Erasmus program at Leiden University, and postdoctoral fellowships funded by Lavoisier and FCT grants. His work bridges organic synthesis, material science, and biomedical applications, with notable contributions to cyclodextrin modifications and Schiff-base macrocycles.

He has published extensively in journals like Chemistry - A European Journal and ChemBioChem, focusing on luminescent materials, cellular imaging probes, and nanoscale structures. His recent projects include developing smartphone-based diagnostic tools and curcumin-based molecular probes for fungal imaging.

Guieu’s research is supported by collaborations with institutions such as CICECO at Aveiro and the Neuroscience Laboratory at the University of Aveiro. Despite his prolific output, no scientific awards are explicitly mentioned in the provided materials.
