Paulo Bargo

Paulo Bargo graduated with a B.S. in Electrical Engineering in 1992 from the Instituto Nacional de Telecomunicações in Santa Rita do Sapucaí, Brazil. In 1995 he earned a M.S. in Electrical Engineering from the Universdade Vale do Paraíba, São José dos Campos, Brazil. He was a visiting student at the Harrison Spectroscopy Laboratory at MIT and returned to the Universdade Vale do Paraíba, São José to be an assistant professor.

In 1998 Paulo decided to pursue a Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering at the Oregon Graduate Institute. Paulo finished his Ph.D. dissertation Optical Measurements for Quality Control During Photodynamic Therapy in 2003.

Paulo is now the Director Research and Innovation at L'Oréal.

Paulo was not really my student (Steve Jacques was his primary advisor), but I nagged him enough that he certainly earned the right to have his picture with the students that I nagged for real.
