Prof. Antonio Frontera is currently a full professor in the Department of Chemistry at the University of the Balearic Islands, Palma de Mallorca, Spain. He received his BSc (1990) and PhD (1994) in Computational Organic Chemistry under the supervision of Professors J. M. Saá, Pere M. Deyà and J. Morey. After a post-doc stay in Yale University under the supervision of Prof. William L. Jorgensen (1995-1996) where he was working towards the development of a force field for carbohydrates, he returned to Spain as a researcher at the University of the Balearic Islands. In 2005 he obtained the “Ramon y Cajal” contract   for working in the field of carbon nanotubes and lithium batteries. He is currently a co-IP of the Supramolecular Chemistry Group (UIB). Prof. Antonio Frontera is author/coauthor of more than 750 professional research articles (h-index 70) and 5 book chapters. His research areas include supramolecular chemistry, noncovalent interactions, computational chemistry, aromaticity and crystal engineering. Dr. M. Ali Aboudzadeh is currently a Marie Curie research fellow in IPREM insttue, which is a joint research unit attached to the CNRS and the University of Pau and Pays de l'Adour, France. He received his BSc (2003) and MSc (2006) in Polymer Engineering from Amir Kabir University of Technology (AUT) and Iran Polymer & Petrochemical Institute (IPPI), respectively. He obtained his PhD (in 2015) in Applied Chemistry and Polymer Materials from the University of the Basque Country (UPV/EHU), Spain and so far he has done several postdoctoral fellowships in different institutes. Dr. Aboudzadeh is an author/coauthor of more than 35 professional research articles and 2 book chapters. He is also the editor of a book entitled "Emulsion‐based Encapsulation of Antioxidants: Design and Performance" published by Springer Nature. His research interests include polymer synthesis and characterization, polymer physics, supramolecular assemblies, rheology, DNA nanotechnology, and encapsulation via emulsion-based systems.
