Mohsen Adeli (born 20 March 1972) is an Iranian chemist and Distinguished Professor of Chemistry at Lorestan University and guest professor at the Free University of Berlin. [2] [3] He is known for his research works in the field of macromolecular chemistry, nanomaterials and materials chemistry. [4]
After high school in Khorramabad, where he graduated in 1992, he studied Pure Chemistry at Lorestan University 1993-1997. He received his MSc in Organic Chemistry in 2001 under supervision of Aliakbar Entezami, and subsequently his PhD in the same field under supervision of Hasan Namazi in 2005 at Tabriz University. Adeli graduated with his thesis entitled Synthesis of citric acid dendrimers and their application as drug delivery agents. He received a research fellowship in the Department of Chemistry at Dortmund University under Rainer Haag in 2005. Then in 2007 he joined Sharif University of Technology Institute of Science and Nanotechnology as a postdoctoral researcher. Since 2014, he has been a visiting professor at the Free University of Berlin.
Adeli’s multidisciplinary research focuses on organic chemistry, polymer science and nanomedicine and addresses several innovative subjects such synthesis of new polymeric architectures and investigation of their physicochemical properties as well as their applications in the field of nanomedicine. Deep understanding of the mechanism of in plane polymerizations and their properties at biointerfaces has resulted in development of new antimicrobial, antiviral, anticancer and wound healing therapeutics. He is developing new methods for the construction of organic frameworks. [5] [6]

The Willard Gibbs Award, presented by the Chicago Section of the American Chemical Society, was established in 1910 by William A. Converse (1862–1940), a former Chairman and Secretary of the Chicago Section of the society and named for Professor Josiah Willard Gibbs (1839–1903) of Yale University. Gibbs, whose formulation of the Phase Rule founded a new science, is considered by many to be the only American-born scientist whose discoveries are as fundamental in nature as those of Newton and Galileo.
Carl Shipp "Speed" Marvel was an American chemist who specialized in polymer chemistry. He made important contributions to U.S. synthetic rubber program during World War II, and later worked at developing polybenzimidazoles, temperature-resistant polymers that are used in the aerospace industry, in fire-fighting equipment, and as a replacement for asbestos. He has been described as "one of the world's outstanding organic chemists" and received numerous awards, including the 1956 Priestley Medal and the 1986 National Medal of Science, presented by President Ronald Reagan.
