Biography
Sandrine Gerber is Adjunct Professor in the School of Basic Sciences at the Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL). Since 2007, she is Deputy Director of the Institute of Chemical Sciences and Engineering (ISIC) and Head of the Group for Functionalized Biomaterials (SCI-SB-SG) Prof. Gerber has solid broad knowledge in synthetic organic chemistry for the design and preparation of complex bioactive molecules. Her scientific expertise is related to the development of new chemical entities for bio-applications. The research activities of her group focus on the design, synthesis and evaluation of functionalized nanomaterials and biomaterials for therapeutic applications including cell transplantation hydrogels, cancer imaging probes, theranostic nanomaterials, biosensors and gene delivery nanocarriers. As part of her management function in ISIC, Prof Gerber has direct supervision of analytic platforms, support services and workshops of the Institute. She manages several national and international multidisciplinary scientific projects and received several awards for her research and education activities, including the 2010 Werner Prize from the Swiss Chemical Society, and the 2018 Excellence in Teaching Award of the Section of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering. In 2020, she was elected fellow of the International Association of Advanced Materials. Sandrine Gerber is co-author of more than 100 peer-reviewed scientific publications and co-inventor of 6 patents. She supervised 9 post-doctoral fellows, 18 PhD students and more than 40 Master thesis projects.
