Since obtaining my Ph. D. degree, I have devoted my research efforts to the synthesis of model macromolecules, with high degrees of structural complexity along with molecular and compositional homogeneity. Also, the synthesis of model compounds gave me the opportunity to elucidate the relation between the macromolecular structure and the properties of polymeric materials. The synthetic efforts led to the synthesis of “miktoarm” stars that opened avenues to the synthesis of materials with multifunctional properties in bulk and in solution. In 2004 we resolved a 50-years synthetic challenge, where model polypeptides were synthesized by using N-carboxy anhydrides (NCAs) and primary amines as the initiator. Since August 2010, I am the Director of the Graduate Program of the University of Athens Chemistry Department, entitled “Polymer Science and its Applications”.

When I entered the Ph.D. program in the Chemistry Department of the University of Athens, the Department had just moved to the new University Campus in Zografou. At that time, the lab was using only conventional radical polymerization for the synthesis of polymeric materials and had only a few old instruments for their characterization. I helped the group to initiate the use of anionic polymerization and high vacuum techniques (HVT) as a way to synthesize model compounds, i.e. polymers exhibiting low polydispersity indices and controlled molecular characteristics. In 1992, I was one of the pioneers who synthesized star polymers, in which chemically different polymeric chains emanated from the same central point. The term “miktoarm stars” (coming from the Greek word μικτός meaning

4

mixed) was adopted by our group for this new class of polymeric materials, and was accepted in the international literature. I took this subject far beyond the state of the art, by synthesizing a variety of miktoarm stars with different macromolecular architectures, such as dendrimers, cyclics, grafts and combs. The importance of this subject led me to dedicate two post-doctoral fellowships to the synthesis of miktoarm stars and the identification of their properties. The impact of this new class of polymeric materials on the self-assembly of copolymers, in bulk and in solution, was very high. Miktoarm star copolymers thus shift the borders of the classic morphology map and formed new morphological structures. For example, PS-b-PI has a lamellar morphology, whereas the nonlinear (PI)2PS and (PI)3PS miktoarm stars, with the same overall molecular weight and composition, form hexagonally packed cylinders and spheres in a BCC array, respectively, due to their different macromolecular architectures. In addition to miktoarm stars, I have also synthesized regular stars with up to 128 arms. The significance of these stars was emphasized by the large number of publications from my group and other scientists following my original methodology, as well as the large number of citations of the original paper. The properties of the multiarm stars have proven very interesting, since the large number of arms induces osmotic compressibility, preventing the arms from interpenetrating, thus causing the stars to behave like hard spheres and form glassy structures, even in solution.

My main intention is to use my expertise together with HVT, for the synthesis of biocompatible polymers for drug and gene delivery applications. For that purpose, I had to move to the synthesis of more functional materials such as polypeptides that form 3D structures, such as α-helix and β-sheet, as do natural proteins. In 2004, I defined the conditions for the living ring opening polymerization of N-carboxy anhydrides (NCAs), i.e. the monomers for the synthesis of polypeptides, with primary amines as the initiators, a 50 year-old synthetic challenge. Although other methodologies had been presented for the synthesis of well-defined polypeptides with other initiators, the original problem of using primary amines had not been resolved. Since then, my group has managed to synthesize a wide variety of novel block copolypeptides of different amino acids, as well as macromolecular architectures (multiblocks, stars). The advantages of this synthetic approach over other procedures were presented in a recent publication in Chemical Reviews. The properties of the functional polypeptides were determined, where it was found that the current picture of the rod-like α-helical molecule such as poly(γ-benzyl-L-glutamate) (PBLG) is not that of an infinitely long tube, but rather of a broken tube. In order to move to the area of possible drug and gene delivery applications, I synthesized a series of amphiphilic triblock copolymers of the ABA type, where the A blocks were hydrophilic poly(L-lysine) (PLL) and the middle block was α-helical hydrophobic partially deuterated PBLG. These ABA copolymers were of interest since the architecture and the stiffness of the chains selected led to the formation of vesicular structures in any composition of the two blocks. Moreover, I made polyion complexes by mixing the polymers with pDNA, and found that PBLG dominates the aggregation and forms vesicular structures. The block polypeptides were mixed with DNA bases, and the self-organization was obtained up to six length scales. I combined my expertise in using the two living polymerization methods, i.e. anionic and ring opening polymerization, to synthesize amphiphilic hybrids - block copolymers that combine conventional polymers such as polyethylene oxide with polypeptides in a variety of macromolecular architectures. The next step is to use this expertise to produce smart polymeric materials that will combine conventional polymers with functional polypeptides (hydrophilic and hydrophobic) and genes in a cell delivery system for the treatment of the lethal cancers and cardiovascular diseases.

5

Now, my main envision is the synthesis of a smart polymer that will be able to encapsulate already known drugs and genes and to deliver them selectively, effectively and in a controlled manner in order to fight cancer and cardiovascular deceases. 88.. RReesseeaarrcchh IInntteerreessttss
