Marie-Helene Delville is a senior scientist (DR1) at the French National Centre for Scientific Research (CNRS). She earned her PhD in organometallic chemistry at the University of Bordeaux 1 in 1988, a topic on which she worked until 1996. She then moved to the Institute of Condensed Matter of Bordeaux, where she is currently working. She is the head of an International Associated Laboratory (LAFICS/IFLaSSC) between India and France. Her research interests are focused on the fundamental and practical aspects involved in the synthesis of organic–inorganic colloidal nano-objects, with special emphasis on the synthesis, control of shape, surface functionalization of mineral oxide particles and sol–gel chemistry. Her research also includes their use in biomedical applications and their potential toxicity.

Lavinia BALAN obtained the PhD degree from the University Henry Poincaré in Nancy, France, in 2005. Her PhD was devoted to the elaboration of an original material for the anode of Li-ion batteries. After a post doctorate in Orleans and then in Mulhouse, she joined the Department of Photochemistry (DPG) of Mulhouse in 2006 as a CNRS Senior Researcher. She opened a new field of research in this laboratory, viz. the photo-assisted synthesis of metal nanoparticles and metal-polymer nanocomposite materials. Since December 2009, L. Balan joined the Institute of Materials Science of Mulhouse (IS2M)-CNRS. She has published more than 100 scientific publications, 4 book chapters and 5 patents. Dr. L. Balan has been serving as an editorial board member for few scientific journals.

Her lines of research are concerned with photochemical synthesis of metal/polymer nanocomposites and design, customization and characterization of metal nanoparticles and nanocrystals (quantum dots) suited for advanced applications in the fields of optic, photonics, plasmonics, imaging or biology.
