Professor Anthony John Ryan, OBE is a polymer chemist and sustainability leader at the University of Sheffield. He is Pro-Vice-Chancellor of the University's Faculty of Science and Director of the Grantham Centre for Sustainable Futures. He delivered the 2002 Royal Institution Christmas Lectures and has appeared on programmes including the BBC Radio 4 comedy and popular science series The Infinite Monkey Cage. He has collaborated on a range of arts and sciences projects with Professor Helen Storey from the London College of Fashion, University of The Arts.
==Career==
Ryan graduated with a BSc in Polymer Science and Technology 〔 from the University of Manchester in 1983, and a PhD from the same institution in 1988.〔 He received a DSc from UMIST in 2004.〔(University of Sheffield; Chemistry ) Staff Profiles〕 His academic career began as a lecturer in Polymer Science at UMIST (1985-1988), followed by a NATO Research Fellow position at the University of Minnesota (1988-1989), before returning to UMIST as a lecturer in 1990.〔 He was promoted to senior lecturer in 1994 and reader in 1995. In 1997 he joined the University of Sheffield's Department of Chemistry as a Professor of Physical Chemistry, becoming Head of Department from 1999 until 2004. He also served as Director of the University's (Polymer Centre ) from 2000 until 2008, when he became Pro-Vice-Chancellor of the Faculty of Science.〔 Ryan has been a Visiting Professor at the London College of Fashion, University of The Arts since 2009 and an Honorary Professor at Nanjing Tech University since 2014. In the 2006 New Year Honours, he received an OBE for services to Science.〔(''Chemistry World'', January 2006 ) Chemistry World ed-board member gets gong〕
Ryan's chemistry research is based around phase transitions in polymers. He cites his main contribution to the field of polymer chemistry as the development and application of the techniques of time-resolved structural tools to polymers. This work won prizes in 1990 from the Plastics and Rubber Institute, in 1992, 1999 and 2003 from the Royal Society of Chemistry and in 1999 from the Polymer Processing Society. Ryan is a Fellow of the Royal Society of Chemistry.
As leader of the University of Sheffield's programme of sustainability research and Director of the Grantham Centre for Sustainable Futures, Ryan's focus is on "the global challenge of the food, water and energy nexus, feeding a growing world population, reducing the impacts of agriculture and food production that account for 25-30% of greenhouse gas emissions, and harnessing the power of the sun for food production and renewable energy".〔
