The Speakers

Ángela Sastre-Santos is currently a Full Professor of Organic Chemistry at the Universidad Miguel Hernández de Elche (UMH), 2010.  

Awarded by the José Barluenga 2018 Medal of the Specialized Group of Organic Chemistry of the Royal Spanish Society of Chemistry, in recognition of quality and excellence in her independent research career in Organic Chemistry. Co-founder of the spin-off Anfechem S.L.  She has published more than 170 peer-reviewed articles, 5 national patents, and 2 book chapters and has an h-index of 37.

Prof. Éva Anna Enyedy is the Head of the Department of Molecular and Analytical Chemistry at the University of Szeged (Hungary) and Leader of the Bioinorganic Chemistry Research Group. 

Her studies combine spectroscopic, electrochemical and separation techniques in order to elucidate and understand the relationships between structure, stability, redox activity, interactions with target or transporter macromolecules and biological activity for different families of metal complexes.

Markus Niederberger is since 2017 Full Professor in the Department of Materials at ETH Zurich. He is Chair of the Laboratory for Multifunctional Materials. 

The Laboratory for Multifunctional Materials is active in diverse research areas ranging from nanoparticle synthesis to aerogels for gas-phase photocatalysis, flexible, transparent and degradable batteries, polymers for corrosion protection and luminescent materials.

Dr. Vania Zuin Zeidler is a Full Professor at the Institute of Sustainable Chemistry at Leuphana University, Germany. Her expertise lies in Green and Sustainable Analytical Chemistry, with a focus on developing innovative analytical methods to identify valuable organic compounds from agro-industrial residues. 

She has received numerous prestigious honors, including awards from IUPAC, ACS, and the Royal Society of Chemistry. She has also served as a Visiting Professor at the University of York, held fellowships from the Robert Bosch and Alexander von Humboldt Foundations, and was recognized by Science journal in 2023 as an expert voice in her field.
