HIMS PhD council

Yanni Wu is part of the Molecular Photonics group, now in the third year of her PhD. Under the supervision of Prof. Hong Zhang and Prof. Wybren Jan Buma, her research project is focusing on the energy transfer mechanism of Lanthanide ions-doped upconversion nanosystems and corresponding applications in biomedical sciences.

Dorina Adamopoulou is part of the Analytical Chemistry group. She is in the third year of her PhD and the research work of her project is under the supervision of Prof. Peter Schoenmakers. Her subject combines Computational Fluid Dynamics simulations and 3D printing and is part of the STAMP project (Separation Technology for A Million Peaks).

Yuliia Orlova is part of the Computational Polymer Chemistry group. She is currently in her third year of PhD. Her research is in developing the methodologies for modeling of complex polymerization processes. Apart from research, she is interested in history of art and traveling.  

Johan Bootsma is a second year PhD student in the area of Sustainable Chemistry, working under the supervision of Bas de Bruin (HomKat group). His project is part of the Dutch national research center ARC-CBBC (Advanced Research Center - Chemical Building Blocks Consortion), and focuses on the move from cobalt-based catalysts to replacements based on iron and/or manganese for the curing of alkyd paints.
