Biography

Dr. Yury Rochev obtained an honors Master of Science degree in Physics (1984) at Moscow State University, Biophysical Department, Russia. In 1990 he was awarded a Doctorate in Biophysics from the Institute of Biological Physics, the Soviet Academy of Science, at Pushchino (Moscow Region). He worked at the Institute of Biological Physics at the Soviet Academy of Science, Pushchino, (later the Institute of Theoretical and Experimental Biophysics, the Russian Academy of Science), Pushchino State University, from 1984 to 1998. His appointments include holding posts of Institute Deputy Director, Vice Rector for Academic affairs, and Chair of Advanced Biomaterials and Tissue engineering. In 1998, he took up a research fellowship position at the Department of Chemistry, NUI Dublin. Dr. Yury Rochev joined the NCBES in 2002, as Senior Scientist in the Biomaterials Cluster with responsibility for the management of the clusters research programme. He was appointed as a Lecturer in Biomedical Engineering Science (fixed term) at the NCBES in 2007. Currently, he is coordinator of the M.Sc. in Biomedical Science course. Dr. Yury Rochevs current research interests include (1) design and development of smart stimulus-responsive biomaterials for cytotechnology and drug delivery;(2) characterization of biomaterials and medical devices at the nano- and micro-scale level; (3) cell-biomaterial interactions, fundamental aspects of biocompatibility. He has published more than 120 journal articles, book chapters, conference and workshops abstracts and papers. Dr. Rochev is involved in several national and international collaborative research projects in biomaterials and tissue engineering. Dr. Rochev is involved in a number of industrial research collaborations, including a major collaborative research program with Boston Scientific Ireland.
