Professor Marina ResminiProfessor of Materials ChemistryEmail: m.resmini@qmul.ac.ukRoom Number: Room 1.05, Joseph Priestley buildingProfileTeachingResearchSupervisionProfileMarina Resmini is Professor of Materials Chemistry in the Chemistry Department at Queen Mary University of London. Her research interests are focused on functional nanomaterials, with applications at the interface between physical and bio/medical sciences, particularly as sensors and drug delivery systems. Her publication record is evidence of the multidisciplinary nature of her research interests, that together with her strong track record of leading large cross-discipline consortia, have consolidated her international standing. Recent interests have led to a new program of work, evaluating the environmental impact of polymeric plastics. She is passionate about equality and positive actions that can drive changes towards a more diverse and inclusive environment in the Chemical Sciences. After election as a Fellow of the Royal Society of Chemistry and ongoing involvement with the Society’s activities, she became a Trustee and Chair of its Inclusion and Diversity committee (2019-2023), contributing to research projects that have resulted in important reports, like ‘Breaking the Barriers’ and ‘Missing elements: racial and ethnic inequalities in the chemical sciences’. She is currently Chair of the RSC Chemistry Community Fund.Undergraduate Teaching Advanced Practical Chemistry 1 (CHE301) Professional Skills for Chemists (CHE401) Advanced Biological Chemistry (CHE402) Drug Design and Development (CHE406U) ResearchResearch Interests:See Marina Resmini’s research profile pages including details of research interests, publications, and live grants.SupervisionCurrent PhD opportunity Self-assembled block copolymers as drug delivery systems for skin treatments PhD supervision Roberta Bilardo Pauline de Bigault de Cazanove Federico Traldi Alena Vdovchenko
