Hello #ScienceMastodon
#introduction I am a Professor of #Polymer #Physical #Chemistry and #Formulation at Chimie ParisTech – PSL University - #Chemistry Research Institute of Paris.

My #research activities focus on conceiving, characterizing, and evaluating the biological behavior of #formulations composed of #polymers. My recent research activity was dedicated to design #polymeric #nanomaterials with controlled morphology and mechanical properties.
