Dr. Romain Lucas obtained his PhD in Organic Chemistry from the University of Limoges (France) in 2009. He was appointed as a Lecturer in 2010 at the Institute of Research on Ceramics (IRCER) and at the IUT of Limoges. His current research interests focus on the syntheses and rheology of original preceramic polymers, including a core-shell approach, the role of the interfaces between ceramic and organic materials, and the ‘green’ fabrication of new composites and catalysts using cellulose-based bioresources. He is the author and co-author of 52 publications, 61 oral presentations, with 15 invited talks.
