We are delighted to welcome Dr Lubomír Rulíšek to the RSC Advances team this month!
Lubomír Rulíšek is a Senior Research Group Leader at the Institute of Organic Chemistry and Biochemistry of the Czech Academy of Sciences, Prague (IOCB). He completed his master’s degrees at the Charles University, Prague and obtained his Ph.D. at IOCB in 2001 (supervised by Dr. Zdeněk Havlas). He was a postdoctoral research fellow at Lund University, Sweden, with Prof. Ulf Ryde who introduced him into theoretical bioinorganic chemistry which has been one of his favorite research themes since then. In addition, the research in the Rulíšek group encompasses various applications of quantum chemistry and quantum and molecular mechanical (QM/MM) modelling: physico-chemical principles of protein structures, protein–ligand interactions, computational electrochemistry, theoretical spectroscopy, organic reactivity, computational homogeneous catalysis, and biomolecular design. He is a true believer in indispensable and integral role of computations in contemporary chemical and biological research.
Rulíšek says, “I am grateful for the opportunity to join RSC Advances as an associate editor and look forward to serve to a large community of chemists and biologists”.

Qingdong Zheng is a Professor of State Key Laboratory of Structural Chemistry in the Fujian Institute of Research on the Structure of Matter, Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS). He obtained his B.S. (1998), and M.S. (2001) degrees from East China University of Science and Technology, and his Ph.D. degree from the State University of New York at Buffalo in 2005. After carrying out his postdoctoral research at Johns Hopkins University, he joined CAS and took his current position in 2010.
Employed for close to 34 years at the University of Campinas (UNICAMP) in São Paulo, Brazil, Professor Meireles completed her PhD in Chemical Engineering at Iowa State University. Starting as an Assistant Professor in the School of Food Engineering in 1983, she has since become a Professor and has supervised 50 PhD dissertations, 30 MSc theses and approximately 72 undergraduate research projects. She has also coordinated scientific exchange projects between UNICAMP and European universities in France, Germany, Holland, and Spain. Angela has served as a Head of Department, as Associate Dean for Undergraduate Studies of Food Engineering and as Associated Director at the Chemical, Biological, and Agricultural Pluridisciplinary Research Center.
Amanda Garner received her Ph.D. in Chemistry from the University of Pittsburgh working under the supervision of Prof. Kazunori Koide and completed NIH-funded postdoctoral studies in the laboratory of Prof. Kim Janda at The Scripps Research Institute. She began her independent career in 2013 in the Department of Medicinal Chemistry at the University of Michigan.
