Kalim Deshmukh is a senior researcher at the New Technologies-Research Centre, University of West Bohemia, Pilsen, Czech Republic. He has over 20 years of research experience working with a wide variety of polymers and nanomaterials, including metal oxide nanoparticles and two-dimensional (2D) materials like graphene and MXenes. His research interest is mainly focused on the synthesis, characterization, and investigations of the structure–property relationship of polymer nanocomposites and nanohybrids reinforced with different nanofillers, including various metal oxides, carbon allotropes, and novel 2D materials for energy storage and conversion, energy harvesting, electromagnetic interference shielding, gas sensing, and biomedical applications. Kevin D. Belfield is the Dean of the College of Science and Liberal Arts, and Distinguished Professor of Chemistry and Environmental Science at the New Jersey Institute of Technology, New Jersey, USA. He received his B.S. in Chemistry in 1982 from Rochester Institute of Technology and his Ph.D. in Chemistry from Syracuse University in 1988. After conducting research in polymer stabilization and degradation at Ciba-Geigy, he conducted research in the synthesis and characterization of functionalized polymers at SUNY College of Environmental Science and Forestry. A pioneer in two-photon absorbing materials and two-photon photochemistry, Belfield has systematically developed principles for the design of probes for in vivo multiphoton fluorescence imaging, photosensitizers for photodynamic cancer therapy, and reagents for two-photon induced photochemical activation. Belfield is also the Becton Dickinson Endowed Research Professor at NJIT, was elected Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science in 2013, Fellow of the American Chemical Society in 2019, and Fellow of the Royal Society of Chemistry in 2022. Chaudhery Mustansar Hussain is an adjunct professor and lab director in the Department of Chemistry & Environmental Sciences at the New Jersey Institute of Technology (NJIT), United States.
