Author Information
Dr. Muhammad Imran Malik is an Associate Professor at the HEJ Research Institute of Chemistry, International Centre for Chemical and Biological Sciences, University of Karachi, Pakistan. He received his doctorate in polymer chemistry at Karl-Franzens-Universitäte, Graz, Austria, in 2009, and subsequently worked as a post-doctoral research scientist, at the University of Stellenbosch, South Africa, and at POSTECH, in South Korea, with his research focusing on analytical polymer science. In 2012, he joined the International Center of Chemical and Biological Sciences at the University of Karachi as an Assistant Professor. Dr. Malik’s main research interests are the synthesis of novel polymeric architectures and the development of comprehensive analytical methods for polymers, as well as polymer-stabilized nanoparticles and their applications, such as sensors, drug delivery, molecularly imprinted polymers, and organic solar cells. Dr. Dilshad Hussain is an Assistant Professor at the LEJ Nanotechnology Centre, International Centre for Chemical and Biological Sciences, University of Karachi, Pakistan. In 2018, he completed his PhD in chemistry at Bahauddin Zakariya University, Multan, Pakistan, and in 2019, he worked as a post-doc at the University of Tours, in France. He works in the field of functional nanomaterials and their applications in textiles, sensing, membranes, and catalysis. His research work is focused on Metal-Organic Frameworks, Metal/Metal Oxide composites, Carbon Nanomaterials, Polymeric Materials, Quantum Dots, and Anisotropic Gold Nanoparticles. Dr. Dilshad’s group research projects include multifunctional textiles, nano-functionalized membranes for environmental applications, and smartphone-assisted portable sensors. Muhammad Raza Shah is a full professor at the International Center for Chemical and Biological Sciences, HEJ Research Institute of Chemistry, University of Karachi, Pakistan. He is also the Head of the Center for Bioequivalence Studies and Clinical Research. He is a recipient of several awards, including the Tamgha-i-Imtiaz Award from the President of Pakistan, the Salam Prize, the Professor Atta ur Rahman Gold Medal, and the Dr M Raziuddin Siddiqi Prize, by the Pakistan Academy of Sciences, for scientists under 40 years of age, in the field of chemistry. Professor Shah has authored six books and edited four books, in addition to contributing over 350 peer-reviewed journal papers. One of his authored books was declared as best book of 2017 by the Government of Pakistan’s Higher Education Commission. Dong-Sheng Guo is Full Professor at the College of Chemistry, Nankai University, China. He obtained his PhD degree from Nankai University under the guidance of Prof. Yu Liu in 2006, before joining Prof. Liu's group as a faculty member in the College of Chemistry. He was promoted to Associate Professor in 2008, and Professor in 2013. His current research interest is in supramolecular biomedical materials. The Guo group takes advantage of molecular recognition and self-assembly of calixarenes to engineer new smart biomaterials to achieve precision medicine. Prof. Guo was selected as the National Leader in Science and Technology Innovation (2019) and Youth Science and Technology Innovation Leader (2018) by the Ministry of Science and Technology of China, and for the Science Funds for Excellent Youth (2013) from the National Natural Science Foundation of China. He also won the Tianjin Natural Science Award (first ranked) in 2015, and is now a senior member of the Chinese Chemical Society. Prof. Guo has published more than 130 research papers in well-reputed international journals.
