The editors:
Professor Paul Calvert, after his graduation at MIT, has served at various institutions, e.g. the University of Arizona before assuming his position at the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth. His research projects comprise e.g. bio-mimetic materials, diffusion and permeability in polymers, intelligent materials, conducting polymers, and tissue engineering. As editorial board member for the Journal Advanced Materials he is well experienced with publishing and entrenched with the community.
Roger Narayan is Associate Professor at the Joint Department of Biomedical Engineering of North Carolina State University. Earlier assignments have taken him e.g. to Oak Ridge National Lab. His research centers on biomedical engineering including biomaterials and nanoscale systems, intelligent systems, biomedical sensors, as well as nanoelectronics and photonics. He also has publishing experience with Journal boards.
