He was elected a Member of the European Academy of Sciences (EurASc) in 2022, awarded the SPSJ international award (Society Polymer Sciences, Japan) in 2021 and the Scientific Grand Prize France Taiwan–Awards Academy of Science (France) in 2018.

Before his actual position, he served as the Executive Director for International Relations Grenoble Alpes Univ, Director of CERMAV–CNRS (Grenoble) and Group Leader–(LCPO), Bordeaux University.

R. Borsali was a visiting Professor at Stanford University and visiting scientist at IBM, Almaden, CA, USA. R. He spent his Post-doc at Max-Planck-Institute for Polymer Research, Mainz, Germany. He earned his Master and PhD in polymer sciences at Louis Pasteur University at Strasbourg, France. He has more 300 publications, 4 books and 5 patents.

Prof R. Borsali’s expertise is focused during the last decade on the Self-assemblies of Carbohydrate-based block copolymers (BCP) systems with controlled architectures, leading to:

• Nanostructured Thin films: smart surfaces, nanolithography, photovoltaic, memory transistors, HR-biosensors, Directed Self-Assembly (DSA)
• Nanoparticles (micelles) & Polymersomes
• Photonic crystals – colored biomaterial
