Dr. Rogerio "Roger" Lima received a B.S. in Physics (1992) and a M.S. in Materials Science (1995) from the Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS), Brazil. He worked two years (1996-1997) as a materials science lecturer at the same institution. From 1998 to 2001 he carried out his Ph.D. studies at the State University of New York at Stony Brook (USA), under the mentoring of Prof. Chris Berndt (now at Swinburne University of Technology, Australia). After obtaining his Ph.D., Dr. Lima joined the National Research Council of Canada (NRC) in 2001 as a Research Associate. He was promoted to the rank of Assistant Research Officer and Associate Research Officer in 2004 and 2008, respectively, and was awarded permanent position at the NRC in 2006. In 2007 he was appointed Adjunct Professor of the University of Alberta (Canada). Dr. Lima has authored/co-authored 44 refereed papers and has received several awards of excellence. His refereed papers have been cited more than 550 times and his h-index is 16 (source: Scopus - April 26, 2009). He has given invited talks in North America, Europe and Asia. Dr. Lima serves as a referee for several international materials science journals and he is the Co-Editor for the Proceedings of the International Thermal Spray Conference 2006, 2007 and 2009 (ITSC 2006, 2007 and 2009) and invited Co-Editor the special editions of the Journal of Thermal Spray Technology related to the ITSC 2006, 2007, 2008 and 2009. Dr. Lima's research main interests are in the relationship among in-flight particle characteristics, microstructure and properties of thermal spray coatings.
