About the editors
Radek Šachl (born in 1982) is a fluorescence spectroscopist and since 2020 head of the Department of Biophysical Chemistry at J. Heyrovský Institute of Physical Chemistry in Prague. He received his Ph.D. in Physical Chemistry at Umeå University in Sweden and at Charles University in Prague in 2012. He did his post-doc at the Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm. Since 2015 he works at J. Heyrovský Institute of Physical Chemistry, where he was appointed a young scientist position in 2018. His main interest is in development of new fluorescence techniques and their biophysical applications related to lipid membranes and protein-membrane interactions.
Mariana Amaro is a photophysicist by training currently interested in the application of fluorescent techniques in topics linked to proteins and membrane-protein interactions: from relationships between structure-function and aggregation-pathology of proteins to links between activity of membrane receptors and membrane organization/dynamics, while still enjoying the photophysical characterization of novel fluorescent dyes. She obtained her Diploma at Minho University, Portugal, and was awarded her PhD in Physics at University of Strathclyde, Scotland. She joined the J. Heyrovský Institute of Physical Chemistry in 2011 and in 2017 became the Head of the Department of Biophysical Chemistry until she took a maternity break in 2019.
