Professor Nicole Pamme

 

Prof. Nicole Pamme
(Stockholm University, Sweden)

 

Prof. Nicole Pamme holds a chair in Analytical Chemistry at Stockholm University (Sweden) in the Department of Chemistry. Her research centres on the study of microfluidic lab-on-a-chip devices applied to environmental analysis, biomedical research and the synthesis of smart materials.

 

Professor Fiona Meldrum

 

Prof. Fiona Meldrum
(University of Leeds, UK)

 

Prof. Meldrum’s research focuses on crystallisation, with particular emphasis on biomineralization and bio-inspired crystal growth, where biogenic principles are translated to synthetic systems to construct new crystalline materials – with tailor-made properties – by design.   She also has interests in the effects of confinement and surface topography on crystallisation, and uses microfluidic systems to control and study crystallisation processes.

 

Professor Steve Evans
