About the Author:

Henk N.W. Lekkerkerker (1946) studied chemistry at Utrecht University (The Netherlands) and obtained his doctorate at the University of Calgary (Canada) in 1971. He then moved to Brussels initially as a postdoctoral fellow at the Université Libre de Bruxelles (Belgium) and subsequently became a Professor of Theoretical Physical Chemistry at the Vrije Universiteit Brussel. From 1985 till present he is a Professor of Physical Chemistry at the Van 't Hoff laboratory, Utrecht University and since 2006 he is also Academy Professor of the Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences. He received the Bakhuys Roozeboom Gold Medal, the Onsager Medal and the Liquid Matter Prize for his work on phase behavior of colloidal dispersions.

Remco Tuinier (1971) studied food science at Wageningen University (The Netherlands) and performed his PhD work at the NIZO food research institute and Wageningen University on colloid-polymer mixtures. Subsequently, he worked as Postdoctoral fellow at Utrecht University and in 2001 became a staff member at the Forschungszentrum Jülich, Germany. From 2008-2015 he worked at DSM Research, Geleen, The Netherlands as Senior and Principal Scientist Colloids & Interfaces. Since 2013 he is part-time professor at Utrecht University. In 2015 he became full professor of physical chemistry at Eindhoven University of Technology, the Netherlands.
