Manuel Joaquim Henriques de Paiva (23 December 1752 – 10 March 1829) was a Portuguese Brazilian chemist and physician, and an important science communicator. A prolific author, Henriques de Paiva published several dozens of scientific books, several of them translations or adaptations of works by international scientists such as Scopoli, Linnaeus, Brisson, or Fourcroy. He was responsible for the spread of Edward Jenner's work on heterologous vaccination throughout the Portuguese-speaking world, through his Preservativo das Bexigas ("Preservative Against the Pox", 1801), a book of popular science meant to raise public awareness to the benefits of vaccination against the deadly smallpox.
