Prof. Dr. Bernhard Rieger studied chemistry at LMU München and received his PhD in 1988. After research stays at the University of Massachusetts at Amherst and in the plastics laboratory of BASF SE, he received his habilitation at the University of Tübingen in 1995 and became Professor Ordinarius at the Department of Materials and Catalysis at the University of Ulm. In 2006, he was appointed as full professor at TUM. Since then, he holds the WACKER-Chair of Macromolecular Chemistry and works as the director of the Institute of Silicon Chemistry at TUM. He received - amongst others - the Philip-Morris Award 2006 and the Wöhler-Award for Sustainable Chemistry in 2013.

Prof. Dr. Andreas Künkel studied biology at the Philipps University Marburg and received his Ph.D. in 1998 at the Max Planck Institute for terrestrial microbiology. Afterwards he started his BASF career within the Central R&D department, followed by marketing positions for Fine Chemicals and ecoflex^(R) & ecovio^(R) with focus on strategy and New Business Development. Since 2010 he is head of biodegradable and biobased polymer research of BASF. The focus of this research is the fundamental understanding of the biodegradation process in different environments and the development of new biodegradable and biobased polyesters and compounds for different applications. He is teaching at the University of Marburg.

Priv.-Doz. Dr. Malte Winnacker received his diploma (chemistry) at the University of Würzburg (2006) and his Ph.D. in Organic Chemistry at the Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München in 2010 (Prof. T. Carell). Then he served as a postdoctoral DAAD fellow at Stanford University (USA) with Prof. Dr. Eric T. Kool (until 2012). Since 2013 he is a scientist and lecturer at the WACKER-Chair of Macromolecular Chemistry at Technische Universität München (Habilitation in 2018). His main research interests are synthesis and applications of sustainable polymers from renewable resources, as well as different biomacromolecules and biomaterials for applications in biology and medicine. He obtained - amongst others - the Max-Buchner-Forschungsstipendium from DECHEMA e.V. in 2018 and a research grant of the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) in 2020.

Dr. Glauco Battagliarin is a laboratory leader and Research Scientist Biopolymers at BASF SE.

Prof. Dr. Geoffrey Coates obtained his B.A. at Wabash College and his Ph.D. at Stanford University. Afterwards, he served as a postdoctoral fellow at the California Institute of Technology. Currently he is the Tisch University Professor in the Department of Chemistry and Chemical Biology at Cornell University, USA. His teaching and research interests involve science at the interface of organic, inorganic and materials chemistry. It includes benign polymers and chemical synthesis, the utilization of renewable resources and materials safe and ecological energy storage and conversion. He obtained- amongst others- the Award in Applied Polymer Chemistry of the American Chemical Society in 2015, and he was elected to the National Academy of Sciences in 2017.

Prof. Dr. Bernhard Rieger在慕尼黑大學學習化學並於1988年獲得博士學位。在麻省大學阿默斯特分校和巴斯夫塑料實驗室進行研究後，他於1995年在圖賓根大學獲得博士後資格，並成為烏爾姆大學材料和催化學系的Ordinarius教授。2006年，他被任命為慕尼黑工業大學的正教授，並擔任WACKER大分子化學講座的持有人，同時擔任慕尼黑工業大學矽化學研究所的所長。他曾獲得菲利普·莫里斯獎（2006年）和2013年可持續化學的Wöhler獎等獎項。

Prof. Dr. Andreas Künkel在馬爾堡菲利普大學學習生物學，並於1998年在馬克斯·普朗克地球微生物學研究所獲得博士學位。之後，他在巴斯夫的中央研發部門開始了他的職業生涯，並擔任精細化學品和ecoflex^(R) & ecovio^(R)的市場職位，專注於戰略和新業務發展。自2010年以來，他一直是巴斯夫可生物降解和可生物基聚合物研究的負責人。該研究的重點是對不同環境中生物降解過程的基本理解，以及開發新的可生物降解和可生物基聚酯和化合物應用於不同領域。他在馬爾堡大學擔任教職。

Priv.-Doz. Dr. Malte Winnacker在維爾茨堡大學（2006年）獲得化學學位，並於2010年在慕尼黑路德維希-馬克西米利安大學（T. Carell教授）獲得有機化學博士學位。然後，他在斯坦福大學（美國）的Eric T. Kool教授指導下擔任DAAD博士後研究員（直到2012年）。自2013年以來，他一直是慕尼黑工業大學WACKER大分子化學講座的科學家和講師（2018年獲得博士後資格）。他的主要研究興趣是從可再生資源合成和應用可持續聚合物，以及不同生物大分子和生物材料在生物學和醫學中的應用。他獲得了DECHEMA e.V.的Max-Buchner-Forschungsstipendium（2018年）和德國研究基金會（DFG）的研究資助（2020年）等獎項。
