Prof. Mannar Ram Maurya is currently with the Department of Chemistry as a Professor of Inorganic Chemistry of Highest Academic grade. He has served as Chair of Department of Chemistry and Dean of Faculty Affairs of Indian Institute of Technology Roorkee, India. He received his Ph.D. from Kurukshetra University (NIT, Kurukshetra), Kurukshetra, 1987, M.Sc. from Bundelkhand University, Jhansi, 1981 and B.Sc. from Gorakhpur University, 1979. His current research interests are: structural and functional models of vanadium haloperoxidases, immobilization of molybdenum and vanadium complexes on inorganic/ organic polymers and their uses as recyclable and sustainable systems for catalytic oxidation of organic substrates and single pot multi component reactions. His group also try to identify the intermediate(s) to understand the mechanism involved in catalytic reactions. He has published more than 190 research articles and 10 review articles (citations >7,000, h index = 50).
Ricardo Jose Chimentão graduated in Chemical Engineering at the State University of Campinas (Unicamp, Brazil) in 1999. At Unicamp, He received his Master´s degree in 2002. In 2007, He received his Ph.D. degree from the Universitat Rovira i Virgili (Spain). Between 2007 to 2016 He was a postdoctoral fellow in different research centers: CNRS (France), Purdue University (USA), LNLS (Brazil), and at the Laboratory for Chemical Technology at the Ghent University (Belgium). He was an Assistant Professor at the Faculty of Chemical Sciences of Universidad de Concepcion (Chile) from 2016 to 2022 and at present he has become an Associate professor.
Dr. Stewart P. Lewis is a world leading expert in the area of sustainable cationic polymerization. He is the only person to invent multiple methods to effect such reactions under aqueous conditions. Lewis’ innovations include heterogeneous initiator systems and those that operate in a truly catalytic manner which have no counterpart to date. His chemistries offer significant benefits from both cost and environmental standpoints. He also has expertise in the synthesis of novel acids useful for engendering such transformations. Some of these researches have been featured prominently in journals such as Journal of Polymer Science. Dr. Lewis, devised and patented methods on the preparation of perfluoroarylated Lewis acids, and successfully implemented their use in cationic polymerizations. His expertise encompasses anionic, cationic ring-opening, and condensation polymerizations.
Prof. Brück‘s research focuses on sustainable production of specialty and platform chemicals from biomass residues. Core competencies are microbial cultivation, design of artifical metabolic pathways, synthetic- and systems biology as well as bioprocess development using E. coli, yeast and microalgae production platforms. Professor Brück manages the globally unique TUM-AlgaeTec Center that enables algae cultivation using sophiticated climate simulations. He studied Chemistry, Biochemistry and Molecular Medicine at Keele University, UK, conducted his PhD studies in Biochemistry at Imperial College and the University of Greenwich. His academic career branched out to marine natural product biochemistry at the Centre of Excellence for Biomedical and Marine Biotechnology at Florida Atlantic University (Boca Raton, USA). In 2006, Professor Brück joined Süd-Chemie AG, where he held various research and high level managerial positions. Since 2011, he is Professor in the field of synthetic biotechnology and sustainability at the TUM.
