We are delighted to welcome Professor Takashi Uemura to the Dalton Transactions Editorial Board. Takashi joins us as an Associate Editor today!
Takashi Uemura obtained his PhD at the Department of Polymer Chemistry, Kyoto University in 2002. He began his academic career as an Assistant Professor and Associate Professor at Department of Synthetic Chemistry and Biological Chemistry in Kyoto University. In 2018, he moved to the University of Tokyo where he now holds the position of Professor. He was also a researcher of PRESTO program (2006–2010) and has been a research director for a CREST program (2013-2020) of the Japan Science and Technology Agency. He has received a number of awards, including the Chemical Society of Japan (CSJ) Award for Young Chemists, the Commendation for Science and Technology by the Minister of Education, Culture, Sports, Science, and Technology, Kao Research Initiative Award, and JSPS Prize.
His research interest focuses on the preparation of synergistic nanohybrids between porous coordination compounds and polymeric materials, in particular, polymer chemistry in confined nanospaces.

Moving from an Editorial Board member position to an Associate Editor, Professor Chandrasekhar brings a wealth of experience to his new role. He obtained his Ph.D. from the Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore, in 1982. After a post-doctoral stint at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst, he joined the Indian Institute of Technology Kanpur in 1987 and he is currently at the Tata Institute of Fundamental Research Hyderabad as a Distinguished Professor and Centre Director.
Li-Min joins us as an Associate Editor based at Nanjing University where she received her Ph.D. degree in Chemistry in 1992. She then joined Nanjing University as a faculty member, and became a lecturer (1992-1997), associate professor (1997-2002) and professor (2002-present). She was a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Zurich in Switzerland (1994-1996) and a visiting scholar at the University of Houston in the United States (1999-2000), ETH Zurich in Switzerland (2007) and Kyoto University in Japan (2012). She has published over 230 research papers.
