Henrique Gomes de Paiva Lins de Barros (Rio de Janeiro, May 30, 1947) is a Brazilian physicist, biophysicist, writer, science communicator,[4] musician, screenwriter, painter and poet.[3]
Early years
His parents were Henry British (Navy official[3]) and Eurydice Gomes de Paiva Lins de Barros.[2] His father and uncles played a part in the creation of the CBPF,[3] together with César Lattes, one of the founding members[5] and friend of Lins de Barros family.[6] He was raised in Copacabana, where he developed his interest about airplanes when, together with his brothers, he learned to recognize the noise from the machines, since he lived in a apartment "where we almost couldn't see the sky".[7]
Career
In 1964, Henrique started the engineering course in the Fluminense Federal University, changing after 18 months for a graduation in physics in PUC-RJ in 1970 and during this time he started, as a hobby, to create music.[3] There, he received the diploma as master in atomic theory in 1973,[4] where he also worked as a teacher.[7]
He became Doctor of Physics in the Brazilian Center for Research in Physics in 1978 and was director from the Museu de Astronomia e Ciências Afins , 1992–2000,[8] where in 1989, he developed an exposition about the scientific question from the 20th century.[4] In the CBPF he works in the subject of biophysics.[4] Where a joint investigation with UFRJ ended in the discovery of a multicellular bacterium.[3]
He's interested about atomic physics, biophysics, history of science, history of tecnics[spelling?] and consider himself as an experimental researcher, instead of a theorist.[3]
