Dr. Juan Rodríguez Hernández completed his doctoral thesis at the Max Planck Institute for Polymer Research (Mainz, Germany, 1999–2003) and then completed a postdoctoral stay at the Laboratory for Organic Polymer Chemistry (LCPO; Bordeaux, France, 2003–2004). In 2004, he joined the Center National de la Recherche Scientifique (CNRS) and later continued to work with the CSIC in 2008. The focus of his research was the synthesis of polymers, such as the chemical modification and structuring of polymeric surfaces. These methods are used for different applications, including biorecognition and surfaces with antibacterial properties, as well as for applications in heterogeneous catalysis. In 2013, he started working on polymer additive manufacturing, trying to design novel materials for this manufacturing technology. Finally, he participated in the creation of a technology-based company (RELEASYCELL, currently iFABCell).
