Kees van Walree

Dr. Kees van Walree serves as an Assistant Professor in the Chemistry department at University College Utrecht, Utrecht University. His position is listed as Scientific Personnel with office locations at both Newton Hall Campusplein 11-14 (Room CC 3584 ED) and Hugo R. Kruyt Building Padualaan 8 (Room Z811). He teaches multiple chemistry courses including Inorganic Chemistry lab, Biophysical Chemistry, Chemistry for Sustainability, General Chemistry lab, Inorganic and Organic Chemistry, Introduction to Chemistry, Organic Chemistry lab, and What's the matter? Elementary Chemistry.

Dr. van Walree's research focuses on membrane chemistry, organometallic compounds, and photochemical processes. His work prominently features styrene-maleic acid copolymers for membrane solubilization, nanodisc technology, and the study of lipid bilayers. He has extensively investigated organometallic pincer complexes, particularly platinum-based compounds, examining their electronic properties, luminescence, and applications in nonlinear optics. His research also explores charge transfer phenomena in conjugated systems and the development of novel nanomaterials including luminescent nanocrystals. The progression of his publications shows a consistent focus on membrane biochemistry evolving toward more sophisticated applications of nanodisc technology.

Dr. van Walree maintains regular office hours on Mondays from 13:30-15:00, Wednesdays from 11:00-12:00, and Thursdays from 14:00-15:00. His work appears to involve collaboration with multiple research groups across Utrecht University, particularly in the chemistry and biophysics domains, though specific laboratory affiliations are not explicitly detailed in the available information.
