Prof. Jannick Duchet-Rumeau got a PhD diploma of University of Lyon in Macromolecular Materials & Composites in 1996 focused on modelling of the interface in a polyethylene / glass system tuned by the grafting connecting chains to improve the adhesion properties. She has had a post PhD position in Louvain La Neuve (Belgium) where she worked on processing and characterization of polymer nanotubes. In 1998, she got an assistant professor position then a full professor position in 2010 in the laboratory ‘Ingénierie des Matériaux Polymères’ UMR CNRS #5223. She manages the National CNRS Network (GDR #3585) dedicated to Ionic Liquids and Polymers gathering 40 academic laboratories. Her research activities are dedicated to multiscale relationships between architecture and physical properties of polymer materials involving i/ nanocomposites materials ii/ mesoporous materials iii/ self assembled materials onto inorganic surfaces iv/ ionic materials from Ionic Liquids and v/ the multi-phased materials : polymer blends and fiber based composites. She is author of two hundred papers in international journals, 7 book chapters and 200 communications in international conferences. She has supervised 60 phd students. Since 2021, she has being managed the IMP Lab gathering 200 permanent and non permanent staff.
