He then set up his own research department in Amiens in 2011, focusing on improving the stability of DSSCs. He has served on the scientific advisory boards of two pioneering DSSC companies, Dyesol (AUS) and 3G Solar (IL).

Albert Nguyen Van Nhien

PhD

Albert defended his doctoral thesis in organic synthesis in 2001. He has worked for many years in the field of glycochemistry and biomass valorisation using sustainable chemistry (solvent development) with applications in the field of energy (electrolytes), environment and biology. He’s now director of the LG2A laboratory in Amiens.
