Author Information

Céile A. Dreiss is a Senior Lecturer in the Institute of Pharmaceutical Science, King’s College London, UK. Her research focuses on understanding and exploiting self-assembly in soft matter, spanning colloidal, polymeric and biological systems, by establishing relationships between properties on the macro-scale (bulk behaviour or functionality) and the organization at the nanoscale. She uses neutron and X-ray scattering techniques extensively as well as rheology. Cecile graduated in Chemistry and Chemical Engineering (ENSIC, France). She received her PhD from Imperial College London (Chemical Engineering) in 2003, after which she took up a 2-year postdoc position at the University of Bristol. She then moved back to London and was appointed as a Lecturer in September 2005. Yujun Feng is a Professor at the Polymer Research Institute and State Key Laboratory of Polymer Materials Engineering, Sichuan University. After earning his PhD in applied chemistry from Southwest Petroleum University, China, in 1999, he moved to France to undertake his post-doctoral research at the Laboratoire de Physico-Chimie des Polymeres, CNRS/Universite de Pau, and at the Institut Français du Petrole (IFP), respectively. In 2004, he joined in the Chengdu Institute of Organic Chemistry, Chinese Academy of Sciences, and has been serving as a team leader since then. In September 2012, he relocated to Sichuan University where he is focusing stimuli-responsive surfactants and polymers.
