Cor Koning

Prof. Cor Koning studied Polymer Chemistry and did his PhD study at the University of Groningen (Netherlands).

From 1987 till 2000 he worked at DSM Research as a Research Fellow and as head of the Polyamide Chemistry and Technology Group.

In 2000 he became full professor in Polymer Chemistry at the Eindhoven University of Technology.

In September 2011 he started workind for DSM Coating Resins as Science Manager Polycondensates, but he still has a part-time professorship at the TU Eindhoven.

Leïla Bonnaud

PhD in material science from the National Institute of Applied Sciences (INSA) of Lyon in France.

She is currently working at MATERIA NOVA research institute in Mons-Belgium as scientific leader and is involved in several regional projects, programs with industries and European Projects.

She also coordinates the polymer ans composite research activities. Her research interests mostly deal with elaboration, (nano)structuration and characterization of sustainable polymeric materials.

 Daniela A. Wilson

Daniela A. Wilson (neé Apreutesei) received her PhD from “Gh. Asachi” Technical University of Iasi, Romania under the supervision of Prof. Dan Scutaru. She then worked as postdoctoral researcher at University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, USA and Radboud University Nijmegen, Netherlands in the groups of Prof. Virgil Percec and Prof. Roeland Nolte.

She is currently associate professor at the Institute for Molecules and Materials, Radboud University Nijmegen and interim head of the Bio-Organic Chemistry Department.

Her group is currently studying supramolecular nanomotors and the emergence of functions from non-equilibrium systems with the aim to create dynamic and adaptive nanosystems able to control their motion, directionality, speed and behavior.
