Biography

Ali Bagheri received his PhD in Chemical Engineering at the University of New South Wales as a part of the Centre for Advanced Macromolecular Design (CAMD) and the Australian Centre for NanoMedicine (ACN) under the mentorship of Dr. May Lim and Prof. Cyrille Boyer in 2018. He then joined the Polymer Chemistry group at the University of Auckland as a Research Fellow. He is now a lecturer at the University of New England. His research focuses on the synthesis of macromolecules for drug delivery and 3D printing applications.
