João (born 1962) is member of the European Academy of Sciences (EURASC) and of the Lisbon Academy of Sciences (Chemistry) (restricted to 12 Chemists), and Fellow of both the Royal Society of Chemistry and the Chemistry Europe, and Director of the Aveiro Institute of Materials-CICECO. In 2012-14 he was advisor for the Prime Minister of Portugal, as a member of the National Science and Technology Council. In 2021 he received the Romão Dias prize from the Portuguese Chemical Society, in 2020 the French-Portuguese prize from the Société Chimique de France, in 2017 the prize Ferreira Silva (highest distinction bestowed by the Portuguese Chemical Society), in 2015 the Medinabeitia-Lourenço prize from the Real Sociedad Española de Química, in 2005 the prize for Scientific Excellence from the Portuguese Science Foundation, and in 1990 a prize from Emmanuel College, Cambridge (for having finished his Ph.D. in two years).

EDUCATION

He got his Ph.D. in 1990 from the Department of Chemistry, Cambridge University, UK, working on solid-state NMR of kaolinite and related materials (supervisor Prof. Jacek Klinowski). This was followed by a one year post-doc (NMR of zeolite-type materials) in the same group. He obtained his ‘Agregação’ (Habilitation) in 1997 in the University of Aveiro, Portugal. He has been in the Chemistry Department, Aveiro University, since mid 1991. In 1999 he was promoted to Full Professor of Inorganic Chemistry.

He has mentored 43 post-docs and 32 Ph.D. students He has coordinated over two-dozen projects (6 European, as national PI), and consulted widely for industry.

PROFESSIONAL ACTIVITIES

João has been in the Chemistry Department, University of Aveiro, since mid 1991 and was promoted to Full Professor of Inorganic Chemistry in 1999. He gave tutorials in Inorganic Chemistry and NMR while at Cambridge. He was invited Professor at Oviedo University in 2010. He was Vice-Director of the European Multifunctional Materials Institute, a follow up of the European Network of Excellence (FAME). He represented Portugal at the ESRF-Grenoble (2004- 06) and at the Chairmen of the European Research Councils of Chemistry (2005-07).

He was Chair (and is still a member) of the 'Commission on Inorganic and Mineral Structures' and is consultant of the 'Commission on NMR Crystallography and Related Methods' of the International Union of Crystallography (IUCr). He was Chair of the editorial board of European Journal of Inorganic Chemistry and was on the editorial board of Solid State Nuclear Magnetic Resonance. At present, he is editor of the RSC Nanoscience and Nanotechnology book series, a member of the editorial boards of Chemistry - a European Journal, and Solid State Sciences, and editorial Advisor for BMC Chemical Engineering.

He has been coordinator and a member of assessment committees of the European Research Council Advanced and Starting Grants, IBM prize Portugal, LABEX (France), Portuguese Science Foundation (grants and research institutions), and has also reviewed projects and assessed research groups for France, Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg, UK, Austria. He is regularly called upon by the Portuguese Science Foundation (FCT) to coordinate the panel awarding post-doc and Ph.D. grants in Materials Science and Engineering, and in 2003 he headed the panel (of foreign scientists) that evaluated the Portuguese Materials Science and Engineering research groups. He has been a regular referee for the leading journals in Chemistry, Materials Science and NMR.

OTHER INTERESTS

João’s first degree was on Physics and Chemistry aimed at teaching in secondary schools. He still enjoys (whenever possible) visiting schools and giving talks aimed at raising the students scientific awareness and showing the beauty of Chemistry and Materials Science.  João is passionate for Nature and loves bird watching (especially eagles) or just rambling around. He is very serious about playing karate (black belt) and loves gardening, music (particularly opera), nature photography, poetry, and meeting people other then scientists and academics.

Scientific Interests

MAIN SCIENTIFIC ACHIEVEMENTS

- Created a field of materials akin to zeolites: microporous silicates of transition metals and lanthanides (ca. 100 novel Ti, Zr, V, Nb, Cu, Sn, Ca, Y, Ce and other Ln silicates - AV and AM materials). To be clear, these are stoichiometric materials, not metal-doped zeolites, whose archetypal solid is titanium silicate ETS-10 (Nature, 367: 347, 1994). We have explored applications in luminescence (J. Am. Chem. Soc., 137: 3051, 2015), catalysis, gas sorption and separation, ion exchange, magnetism and as MRI contrast agents. Outstandingly, one zirconium silicate (Inorg. Chim Acta, 356: 19, 2003) has found a real commercial application as a drug for the treatment of hyperkalemia (excess K⁺ in serum, see below).

- Developed sophisticated luminescent lanthanide-bearing Metal Organic Frameworks and coordination polymers (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed., 47: 1080, 2008), in particular for nanothermometry (Adv. Funct. Mater., 25: 2824, 2015).

- Designed a photoresponsive crystalline organic-inorganic hybrid ferroelectric material with a high Curie temperature (423 K), paving the way for accomplishing multiple-state ferroelectric memories, optical switches, and various optoelectronic devices (J. Am. Chem. Soc., 142: 16990, 2020).

- Developed oxide nanoparticles for imaging contrast agents (ACS Nano, 4: 5339, 2010), bimodal imaging (Biomater., 33: 925, 2012), and for nanothermometry (Nature Nanotech, 11: 851, 2016; Adv. Mater., 35: 4868, 2013).

- Designed materials for small-drugs release (including NO, J. Am. Chem. Soc., 133: 6396, 2011).

-Devised materials for a more sustainable World (including anti-mosquito nets, ACS Appl. Mater. Interfaces, 9: 22112, 2017; and uranyl capture Angew. Chem., Intl. Ed., 58: 1, 2019).

-Designed (ca. 40) heterogeneous catalysts based on mesoporous silicas derivatized with metal complexes (J. Mater. Chem., 12: 1735, 2002).

- Elucidated the structure of minerals (e.g., clays) using advanced NMR and XRD techniques (J. Am. Chem. Soc., 113: 7100, 1991; J. Am. Chem. Soc., 114: 6867, 1992; Am. Mineral., 103: 812, 2018).

- Pioneered development of solid-state NMR techniques for studying quadrupolar nuclei (Solid State NMR, 21: 61, 2002; Magn. Reson. Chem., 41: 679, 2003) and ¹H (J. Mag. Reson., 199: 111, 2009).

SOCIETAL IMPACT

Rocha is perhaps best known for having extended the realm of zeolitic materials to transition metal and Ln silicate solids. In this context, he developed several microporous zirconium silicates. One such material (AV-13, Inorg. Chim Acta, 356: 19, 2003), in a modified form, was eventually explored by the US company ZS Pharma, now part of AstraZeneca, to treat a medical condition known as hyperkalemia (excess K⁺ in serum). The new drug Lokelma (oral intake) has been approved by FDA and the EMA and is expected to be on the market this year.
