Presenter:
Prof. Ralf Richter from School of Biomedical Sciences, Faculty of Biological Sciences, School of Physics and Astronomy, Faculty of Engineering and Physical Sciences, Astbury Centre for Structural Molecular Biology, and Bragg Centre for Materials Research, University of Leeds, United Kingdom
Prof. Richter obtained his M.Sc. degree (1998) at Chalmers/University of Gothenburg, Sweden, and his Ph.D. degree (2004) at the University of Bordeaux I, France. After postdoctoral training (2005−2007) at Heidelberg University, Germany, a research group leader position (2007−2016) at CIC biomaGUNE, San Sebastian, Spain, and a Chair of Excellence (2012−2015) at University Joseph Fourier, France, he joined the University of Leeds, UK, in 2016 as Associate Professor. His research lab develops physics and chemistry tools to understand the mechanisms of assembly and function of soft biological interfaces, such as glycocalyces, to advance knowledge and for applications in biomedicine and biotechnology.
