Biography
Dr. Torsten Kreer studied physics at the University of Mainz, Germany, and received his PhD in 2002. Later, he moved to the Institute Charles Sadron in Strasbourg, France, for a post-doctoral stay funded by the German Science Foundation. Since 2011, Torsten Kreer is a researcher and leader of the ‘‘Non-equilibrium properties of polymers’’ group within the Institute ‘‘Theorie der Polymere’’ at the IPF Dresden, Germany. He received several grants from the European Science Foundation (ESF-STIPOMAT programme) and the German Science Foundation. Apart from polymer brushes and their non-equilibrium properties, his main research interests cover polymers, colloids and their mixtures.
