Projektbeschreibung der*des Nominierenden

Professor Weck is well known internationally for his outstanding contributions to polymer chemistry and materials science, in particular supramolecular polymers. He has developed innovative methodologies towards the construction of complex polymeric materials for important applications such as tissue engineering, drug delivery, supported catalysts, and opto-electronics materials. During his stay in Germany, Professor Weck will introduce the concept of multivalency to supramolecular polymers and colloidal assemblies.
