Speaker BiographyIain McCulloch is Professor of Polymer Materials in the Department of Chemistry at Imperial College London. His research interests are in the design, synthesis and application of conjugated materials for optical and electronic applications. Iain obtained a PhD in Polymer Chemistry in 1989 at the University of Strathclyde, UK, then spent 10 years at Hoechst Celanese, in the US, engaged in the research of novel functional polymers for nonlinear optics, lithography and drug delivery. Before joining Imperial, he was a Research Manager at Merck Chemicals, UK, responsible for f novel solution processable organic semiconductor materials for application in organic field effect transistors and photovoltaic devices. He has edited one book, is co-inventor on over 50 patents and co-author of over 100 papers. Company ProfileRated as the world's ninth best university in the 2006 Times Higher Education Supplement University Rankings, Imperial College London is a science-based institution with a reputation for excellence in teaching and research that attracts 11,500 students and 6,000 staff of the highest international quality.
Innovative research at the College explores the interface between science, medicine, engineering and management and delivers practical solutions that improve quality of life and the environment - underpinned by a dynamic enterprise culture.
With 62 Fellows of the Royal Society among our current academic staff and distinguished past members of the College including 14 Nobel Laureates and two Fields Medallists, Imperial's contribution to society has been immense.
