Fan Chen received his B.Sc. degree in biofunctional materials from Beijing University of Chemical Technology in 2012, followed by an M.Sc. degree in polymer science from Loughborough University in 2013. He started his Ph.D. in chemistry at the University of New South Wales under the supervision of Professor Martina Stenzel in 2014 and has recently submitted his Ph.D. thesis. His research focuses on the use of nanoparticles for cancer treatment and bioimaging techniques.

Martina Stenzel studied chemistry at the University of Bayreuth, Germany, before completing her Ph.D. in 1999 at the Institute of Applied Macromolecular Chemistry, University of Stuttgart, Germany. She started as a post-doctoral fellow at UNSW in 1999 and is now a full professor in the School of Chemistry as well as co-director of the Centre for Advanced Macromolecular Design (CAMD). In 2019, she was elected Fellow of the Australian Academy of Science. Her research interest is focused on the synthesis of functional nanoparticles for drug delivery applications. Martina has published more than 300 peer-reviewed papers mainly on polymer and nanoparticle design. She is scientific editor of Materials Horizons and serves currently on a range of editorial boards. She is currently the chair of the National Chemistry Committee of the Australian Academy of Science. She has received a range of awards, including the 2011 Le Fèvre Memorial Prize of the Australian Academy of Science. In 2017, she received the H. G. Smith Memorial Award.
