报告人：Prof. Albert P.H.J. Schenning（Eindhoven University of Technology, Netherlands）

个人简历：Dr. A.P.H.J. Schenning is professor at the Eindhoven University of Technology. His research interests center on functional organic materials. Schenning received his PhD degree at the University of Nijmegen in 1996 on supramolecular architectures based on porphyrin and receptor molecules with dr. M.C. Feiters and prof. dr. R.J.M. Nolte. Between June and December 1996, he was a post-doctoral fellow in the group of prof. dr. E.W. Meijer at Eindhoven, University of Technology working on dendrimers. In 1997, he joined the group of prof. dr. F. Diederich at the ETH in Zurich, where he investigated conjugated oligomers and polymers based on triacetylenes. From 1998 until 2002, he was a Royal Netherlands Academy of Science (KNAW) fellow at Eindhoven University of Technology (Laboratory of Macromolecular and Organic Chemistry) active in the field of supramolecular organization of conjugated polymers. He received the European Young Investigators Award from the European Heads of Research Councils and the European Science Foundation in 2004, the golden medal of the Royal Dutch Chemical Society in 2005 and a Vici grant from the Netherlands Organisation for Scientific Research (NWO) in 2007.
