\nSelf-Assembled Nanomaterials:from Fundamentals to Applications
\nShort Biography <\/Strong>
Kaoru Tamada is a senior vice president and distinguished professor in the Institute for Materials Chemistry and Engineering (IMCE), Kyushu University. She obtained her doctor of science in 1994 from the Nara Women's University after several years experiences in Japanese chemical industry and the University of Wisconsin-Madison. After a postdoc at RIKEN, she joined the NIMC (reorganized to AIST) as a Senior Scientist, Tokyo Institute of Technology as an Associate Professor, and Tohoku University as a professor. She moved to Kyushu University in 2011. She had several years oversea research experiences in Australian National University (ANU), Max-Planck Institute for Polymer Research (MPIP) and the National University of Singapore (NUS). Her research focusses in nanoscience and nanointerface, especially, assembly of molecules and nanomaterials, surface plasmon resonances and metamaterials, and their bio and device applications. She received the surface science society of Japan award in 2018. She is also an Associated Editor in ACS Applied Nano Materials.<\/td>
