Dr. Hynd Remita is the Director of Research at CNRS. She is working at the Institut de Chimie Physique, University Paris-Saclay (France). After receiving a PhD in Physical Chemistry from the Université Paris-Sud in 1990, she performed postdoctoral research at the University of Sherbrooke (Canada). Presently, she is the Deputy Director of the Institute of Sustainable Energy Paris-Saclay. She is a specialist in nanomaterials, radiolysis, and photocatalysis. Her research unites various strategies for the development of synthesis methods for nanomaterials with specific applications (photocatalysis, plasmonic catalysis, fuel cells, nanomedicine). Presently, her activities focus on hydrogen generation and water treatment by photocatalysis.

Prof. Isabelle Lampre is a Professor of Physical Chemistry at the Orsay Faculty of Sciences, Université Paris-Saclay. Since 1998, she has worked at the Institut de Chimie Physique (previously Laboratoire de Chimie Physique) and has been a part of the TEMiC group. Her research interests include physical chemistry, chemical physics, kinetics, radiolysis, photophysics, steady-state and time-resolved UV–Visible absorption and fluorescence spectroscopy, and the synthesis and optical properties of metallic nanoparticles.
