Biography

Shin-ichi Yusa is a native of Japan and received B.S. (1993) and M.S. (1995) degrees in polymer chemistry from Osaka University under the direction of Professors Mikiharu Kamachi and Yotaro Morishima. He received a Ph.D. from Osaka University (2000) for a thesis entitled: “Synthesis of Cholesterol Bearing Polymers and Their Self-Assembling Properties.” He joined Himeji Institute of Technology as an assistant professor in 1997. He became associate professor of University of Hyogo (2008). His research interests are in controlled radical polymerization and characterization of water-soluble polymers. He is currently on the editorial board of Polymers (MDPI Publishing), The Open Colloid Science Journal (Bentham Science Publisher), E-Journal of Chemistry (Hindawi Publishing Corporation), and Open Journal of Polymer Chemistry (Scientific Research Publishing).
