Knut Asmis, University of Leipzig, Germany

Knut R. Asmis is Professor of Physical Chemistry at the Wilhelm-Ostwald-Institut für Physikalische und Theoretische Chemie at Leipzig University (Germany) and currently the Speaker of the DFG Research Training Group 2721 „Hydrogen Isotopes: 1,2,3H“. He received his Dr. rer. nat. in Physical Chemistry from the Université de Fribourg in Switzerland in 1996.
After a postdoctoral stay at the University of California, Berkeley, he moved to the Freie Universität Berlin in 1999 and earned his Habilitation in Experimental Physics in 2006. From 2005 to 2014 he was a research group leader and from 2009 to 2014 a permanent staff scientist at the Fritz-Haber-Institut der Max-Planck-Gesellschaft in Berlin. In 2023 he recieved the van 't Hoff Prize of the Deutsche Bunsengesellschaft in recognition for his seminal studies of gas phase clusters. His current research interests focus on the experimental characterization of the structure, reactivity, and dynamics of isolated clusters and single nanoparticles.


Christopher Batchelor-McAuley, Trinity College Dublin, Ireland

Chris Batchelor-McAuley is currently Assistant Professor in Physical Chemistry at Trinity College Dublin, having taken up this position in 2022. Prior to moving to Ireland he was a Fellow of the Oxford Martin School at the University of Oxford, where he also studied and completed his D.Phil under the supervision of Prof. Richard Compton. His work spans from fundamental to applied, embracing areas including energy conversion, medical sensing and nanochemistry. Underpinning all of his work is a focus on investigating reactions at interfaces and the coupling of these processes to solution phase mass-transport phenomena. He has co-authored more than 200 journal publications and the pedagogical textbook ‘Understanding Voltammetry: Problems and Solutions”


Max Beyer, Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, Netherlands

Dr. Beyer studied chemistry at ETH Zurich and received his PhD in 2018 for precision measurements of Rydberg states of molecular hydrogen. He then spent two years at Yale to work with D. DeMille on parity violation in molecules and developing lasers for novel laser-slowing schemes. In 2020 he moved to Amsterdam to start his research group, focussing on precision measurements of hydrogen molecular ions to test quantum electrodynamics. He explores the use of Rydberg states to prepare molecular ions in selected rovibronic states. In 2023 he received an ERC StG to start an experiment on laser cooling helium dimer molecules.


Matthias Bickelhaupt, Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, Netherlands

F. Matthias Bickelhaupt holds Chairs in Theoretical Chemistry at Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam and Radboud University, Nijmegen, and is Head of the VU Department of Chemistry & Pharmaceutical 新月直播app下载s.

Ioana Ilie, University of Amsterdam, Netherlands

Dr. Ioana M. ILIE serves as an Assistant Professor within the Computational Chemistry group at the University of Amsterdam. Having obtained her PhD in Computational Biophysics from the University of Twente, she furthered her academic pursuits as a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Zurich, focusing on the intricate biochemical aspects of proteomics. The research in her group is centered around multiscale simulations of biomolecular systems. Specifically, her team employs rational design and multiscale simulations to achieve three main objectives: (1) understanding and controlling the aggregation mechanisms of polypeptides and their interactions within the biological environment, (2) designing peptide-based therapeutics for neurodegenerative diseases, and (3) developing intelligent (bio)materials with responsive properties.

After completing her Ph.D. she spent three years as a postdoctoral fellow at Johns Hopkins University. She joined Temple University in Philadelphia in 2003 where she has been since then.   Her research interests focus on the theoretical description of electronically excited states, nonadiabatic dynamics, and conical intersections in molecular systems. She is particularly interested in photophysics and photochemistry of molecular systems, and in electron driven processes.


Bert Weckhuysen, Utrecht University, Netherlands

Bert Weckhuysen, a Distinguished University Professor at Utrecht University (The Netherlands), received his Master and PhD degrees from Leuven University (Belgium) in 1991 and 1995. He has worked as a postdoc at Lehigh University (USA) and Texas A&M University (USA).

He is a Knight in the Order of the Netherlands Lion, and an elected member of a.o. the Royal Dutch Academy of 新月直播app下载s, Royal Flemish Academy of Belgium for 新月直播app下载s and Arts, and European Academy of 新月直播app下载s.


Gijs Wuite, Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, Netherlands

Prof. Gijs Wuite obtained his PhD in biophysics in 2000. Since 2001 he leads his own group at the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam and in 2009 was appointed to full professor. In his research he has successfully applied quantitative physical tools to investigate fundamental problems in biology, and to search for the unification of apparently unrelated biological phenomena. Moreover, he has been at the front of recent new and fast developments of biophysical techniques that have enabled visualization, manipulation and control of complex biological reactions He has been awarded several ERC grants (Consolidator - 2010; PoF – 2013 &2014; Advanced – 2020). In 2014 he co-founded LUMICKS, a fast-growing company specialized in dynamics single molecule instruments and in 2018 he won the Dutch Physics Valorization prize & in 2019 the Amsterdam Impact Award, for successfully launching of this company.

Bursaries

Grants for Carers

Grants for carers have been introduced following the 新月直播app下载 Breaking the barriers report where 78% of chemists working in UK academia felt that managing parenting and/or caring responsibilities has an impact on women’s retention and progression. This fund is not limited to women scientists and welcomes applications from anyone with caring responsibilities. These grants have been supported by The 新月直播app下载’s Chemists’ Community Fund.

You can apply for up to a maximum of £1000/year to assist with additional financial costs that you incur for care usually provided by you whilst you attend a chemistry related meeting, conference or workshop or a professional development event.

Caring responsibilities are wide and varied, and so each application will be individually assessed, examples of applications that we will consider include:
  • paying for extra home help or nursing care for a dependent whilst you will not be present
  • additional medical/respite care for a dependent whilst you will not be present
  • travel expenses for a relative to travel with you to care for dependents whilst you attend a meeting or event
  • paying for extended hours with a care worker/childminder/play scheme to cover time when you will arrive home later than normal.
You are eligible to apply if: 
  • you are a chemist
  • you will incur additional caring expenses whilst attending a chemistry-related meeting, conference, event or workshop or a professional development event
  • you will use these funds to cover the cost of care that you usually provide 
  • you are based in the UK or Ireland or if not, you will normally have held three years RSC membership (past or current).
