Emma Brisson received a Bachelor of Applied Science degree in engineering science from the University of Toronto in 2009. In 2011, she obtained a Master's degree in applied science in the field of organic photovoltaic materials, also at the University of Toronto. She is currently pursuing a Ph.D. degree with Dr Luke Connal at the University of Melbourne with an interest in functional polymers and their various applications.



Dr Zeyun Xiao obtained his bachelor's degree from Zhejiang University, and his Ph.D. degree from Shanghai Institute of Organic Chemistry, Chinese Academy of Sciences, in the field of supramolecular chemistry and self-assembly. After working on enzyme mimics for asymmetric catalysis in Lund, Dr Xiao moved to the University of Melbourne, first working on organic electronic materials, and then on functional polymers and enzyme mimics.



Luke Connal received his bachelor's degree in chemical engineering in 2002 and a Ph.D. in polymer chemistry in 2007, both from the University of Melbourne, Australia. He worked in a post-doctoral position with Frank Caruso from 2007 to 2009. In 2009, he became a Sir Keith Murdoch post-doctoral fellow at the University of California, Santa Barbra, working with Professor Craig Hawker. In 2013, Luke returned to the University of Melbourne as a Veski Innovation Fellow and Senior Lecturer in the Department of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering. His research interests lie in the development of bio-inspired materials using advanced polymer design, self-assembly, and catalysis.
