Short biography

Rainer Müller was born on December 22, 1968 in Schrobenhausen, Bavaria (Germany). He studied chemistry at the University of Regensburg where he graduated in February 1995. His diploma-thesis was entitled "Synthesis and physicochemical characterization of biologically degradable cationic polyelectrolytes" and was prepared at the Institute of Physical and Macromolecular Chemistry under supervision of Professor Klaus Heckmann. He obtained his PhD in February 1998 at the Laboratory of Interface Chemistry which was the follow-up institution after Professor Heckmann´s retirement. The PhD-thesis was entitled "Synthesis of corrosion-inhibiting coupling agents for microelectronic devices".

After attaining his doctoral degree, Rainer Müller was scientific co-worker at the Laboratory of Interface Chemistry where he established a research group focused on colloid and interface chemistry with special emphasis on biomaterials and tissue engineering. In December 2000 he became scientific assistant at the Institute of Physical and Theoretical Chemistry of the University of Regensburg headed by Professor Werner Kunz starting his habilitation work. He initiated several co-operations with the Departments of Trauma Surgery, Operative Dentistry, and Neurology of the University Hospital of Regensburg and other univeristy institutes which were funded by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) or by the Bavarian State Ministry of Sciences, Research and the Arts. In November 2009 he finished his habilitation-thesis entitled "Chemical modification of biomaterial surfaces and scaffolds to direct biological responses in regenerative medicine". In Juli 2010 he was appointed 'Privatdozent' at the University of Regensburg.

Since August 2011 Rainer Müller is senior research assistant (Akademischer Rat) at the Institute of Physical and Theoretical Chemistry of the University of Regensburg. He gives lecture courses and laboratory classes for undergraduate students of chemistry, biochemistry and biology.
