• Visiting researcher, Medicinal Chemistry, Uppsala University

His research explores Soft Condensed Matter through neutron and X-ray scattering techniques, focusing on:

• Colloidal particle interactions in biological and synthetic systems
• Self-assembly processes at interfaces
• Rheological behavior of complex fluids
• Adsorption mechanisms from solution
• Surface modification with natural proteins
• Environmental impacts of atmospheric pollutants

Recent publications highlight trends in food colloids (pea protein emulsions), environmental applications (Moringa seed proteins for water purification), and advanced characterization methods (operando scattering, neutron reflectometry). He has secured funding from VR (Swedish Research Council) and SSF (Swedish Foundation for Strategic Research).

Professor Rennie contributes to instrumentation development (sample cells for interface studies) and scientific collaboration, with extensive publications in journals like Langmuir, Soft Matter, and Advances in Colloid and Interface Science.
