David C. Watts

David Christopher Watts (born 7 April 1945) is a British biophysicist, material scientist, and academic. He is a professor of Biomaterials Science at the University of Manchester, and a Biomaterials Consultant at BIOMAN Materials Consultants.

Watts has received recognition for his work on dielectric spectroscopy and molecular relaxation processes, as well as for his current work on the interdisciplinary science of oral biomaterials, particularly the understanding of photo-polymerised composite materials. He is the co-discoverer of the Kohlrausch-Williams-Watts [KWW] stretched-exponential function for modelling molecular-relaxation processes in condensed media, and has been awarded numerous awards for his research work in the field.

Watts is a Fellow of the Institute of Physics, the Royal Society of Chemistry, the Academy of Dental Materials, and the Royal Society of Biology. He has been the Editor-in-Chief of Dental Materials - Journal for oral and craniofacial biomaterials sciences since 1998. Provided by Wikipedia
