Anders Meibom
Anders Meibom obtained his PhD in physics from the University of Southern Denmark in 1997. This was followed by two and a half years of PostDoc work at the Hawaii Institute for Geophysics and Planetology, where he conducted mineralogical studies of primitive chondritic meteorites. From 2000 to 2005, he was Research Associate in the Geological & Environmental Sciences, Stanford University, where he represented Stanford in the USGS-Stanford ion microprobe laboratory. In 2005, he became proifessor at the Muséum National dHistoire Naturelle in Paris. From 2006 to 2011 he was the director of the French national NanoSIMS laboratory. Since January 2012, he is professor at the EPFL in the School of Architecture, Civil and Environmental Engineering (ENAC). From April 2014, he is professor ad personam at the Institute of Earth Sciences, University of Lausanne.
Nicolai Cramer
Nicolai Cramer was born in Stuttgart, Germany; he studied chemistry at the University of Stuttgart where he graduated in 2003, and earned his PhD in 2005 under the guidance of Professor Sabine Laschat. After a research stage at Osaka University, Japan, he joined the group of Professor Barry M. Trost at Stanford University as a postdoctoral fellow in 2006. From 2007 on, he worked on his habilitation at the ETH Zurich associated to the chair of Professor Erick M. Carreira and recieved the venia legendi in 2010. In 2010, he started as Assistant Professor at the EPF Lausanne and was promoted to Associate Professor in 2013 and to Full Professor in 2015. His main research program encompasses enantioselective metal-catalyzed transformations and their implementation for the synthesis of biologically active molecules.

CV
Holger Frauenrath
Holger Frauenrath
(born in Aachen, Germany) studied chemistry at
RWTH Aachen
, Germany from 1992 to 1997, with a focus on synthetic organic chemistry. He performed his PhD thesis from 1998 to 2001 in the research group of Prof Hartwig Höcker at RWTH Aachen, working on a project related to the stereospecific polymerization of methacrylates as well as their copolymerization with olefins using zirconocene catalysts.
Holger Frauenrath then joined the group of Prof. Sam Stupp at
Northwestern University
, Evanston, IL, USA, as a postdoctoral fellow supported by a
Feodor Lynen fellowship
of the
Alexander von Humboldt Foundation
. His postdoctoral research projects were centered around the supramolecular self-assembly of rod-coil molecules.
Holger Frauenrath returned to Germany in 2003 and started to build his own research group at FU Berlin, funded with an
Emmy Noether Grant
from the
German Science Foundation
. In 2005, the research group moved to the Department of Materials at
ETH Zurich
, Switzerland, where it became a scientifcally independent part of the
Polymer Chemistry Group
led by
Prof. A. Dieter Schlüter
. Holger Frauenrath obtained his Habilitation from ETH Zurich in 2009.
In 2009, Holger Frauenrath has been appointed as a professor at the
Institute of Materials (IMX)
of the
Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne (EPFL)
, Switzerland, building the new
Laboratory of Macromolecular and Organic Materials (LMOM)
. In the same year, Holger Frauenrath was received the prestigious
European Research Council (ERC) Starting Investigator
grant.
