About the author
Emilio M. Pérez received his BSc and MSc from the Universidad de Salamanca (2001) and his PhD from the University of Edinburgh (2005), supervised by Prof. David A. Leigh. After a Juan de la Cierva postdoctoral fellowship with Prof. Nazario Martín at Universidad Complutense de Madrid, he joined IMDEA Nanociencia as Ramón y Cajal Researcher in 2011. In 2013 he was promoted to Senior Research Professor, and since 2015 he is Executive Director for Scientific Outreach. His research interests are focused in three areas: development of new methods for chemical modification of carbon nanotubes, covalent and noncovalent chemistry of 2D materials, and fundamental aspects of supramolecular chemistry. He has received European Research Council Starting and Proof-of-Concept grants, and is a member of the Young Academy of Europe and of the Editorial Advisory Board of Fullerenes, Nanotubes and Carbon Nanostructures, (Tailor & Francis), among other distinctions.
