Welcome to our new Editorial Board member: Charlotta Turner

We are delighted to welcome Professor Charlotta Turner to the RSC Advances team!

 

Charlotta Turner_ RSC Advances Editorial Board Member

Charlotta Turner is a Professor in Analytical Chemistry at Lund University in Sweden. Her research is interdisciplinary, including analytical chemistry, supercritical fluid technology, and sustainable development aspects. She has more than 20 years of experience on the fundamentals of supercritical fluids in separation processes. Her current research focus is on the development of fast, selective, and bias-free separation methods using carbon dioxide expanded green solvents. An important inspiration is the enhanced use of biomass and industrial byproducts as sources of high-value compounds for use in food, health and environmental applications.

Charlotta Turner has published over 100 scientific articles, review papers and book chapters. She has received the Swedish King Carl XVI Gustaf’s award for environmental science (2005), the SSF Ingvar Carlsson Award for returning postdocs (2006), the AOCS Herbert J. Dutton Award for her work on lipid analysis (2015) and the Svante Arrhenius Award for her work on green and sustainable chemistry (2017). She is also awarded with Excellent Teacher Practitioner (ETP, 2017). Charlotta Turner is the chair of the Analytical Chemistry Division of the Swedish Chemical Society, the chair of Lund University Food Faculty, and also a member of the Royal Engineering Science Academy (IVA) and the Royal Physiographic Society of Lund.

Introducing our new Associate Editors: Camilla Abbehausen & Megan O’Mara

We are very pleased to welcome Professors Camilla Abbehausen and Megan O’Mara to the RSC Advances team as Associate Editors today!

 

Camilla Abbehausen

Camilla Abbehausen received her Bachelor’s degree in Chemistry from the University of Campinas in 2003 and was honored by the Regional Chemistry Council Prize for Bachelors in the same year. Before diving into academics, she worked from 2002 – 2010 at Dow Corning Co. in the Application Development and Research department to develop health and personal care applications for silicone polymers. In 2007 she received an Application Services – Latin America award for the services developed. Camilla received a Master’s degree in Inorganic Chemistry from the University of Campinas in 2009 and a Ph.D. from the same University in 2014. In a collaboration with Virginia Commonwealth University, under the supervision of Prof. Pedro Paulo Corbi and Prof. Nicholas Farrell, she studied the interaction of metal complexes with zinc finger domains and the development of metal-based antitumor, antiviral and antibacterial agents. Camilla was selected as Assistant Professor at the University of Campinas in 2015 and started a group on bioinorganic and medicinal inorganic chemistry. Camilla acted as a visiting professor at the Technical University of Munich (2020).

Her interests are the development of metal-based compounds for medical applications, especially in the interaction of these compounds with biomolecules and the studies of their mechanism of action. She is also studying metalloenzyme mechanism and inhibition, and developing novel methodologies for the synthesis of transition metal coordination compounds.

 

 

Megan_O'Mara_photoMegan O’Mara grew up in regional Queensland, Australia and is currently an Associate Professor at the Research School of Chemistry, Australian National University, Canberra, Australia. She was awarded her PhD (Physical Sciences) in 2005 from the Australian National University before undertaking postdoctoral training at the University of Calgary (Canada, Canadian Institutes of Health Research postdoctoral fellow) and at the University of Queensland (University of Queensland Postdoctoral Fellowship).

Megan’s research is highly interdisciplinary and uses computational chemistry to understand the chemical basis of biomolecular interactions, focusing on lipid organization and dynamics, small molecule small molecule and drug interactions with membrane proteins and lipid membranes, and self-assembly processes in bio-inspired systems.
