Organizing committee
Damien Bourgeois (48 years old): After a PhD thesis at the Ecole Polytechnique (Paris, France) on olefin metathesis applied to the synthesis of complex organic molecules and a post-doctoral fellowship at Imperial College (London, England) on nitrogen heterocycles synthesis, he joined the Rhodia Recherches Center in Lyon in 2002 and worked on applied homogeneous catalysis (butadiene hydrocyanation, Friedel-Crafts acylation) and paint & coatings formulation. He then joined the CNRS in 2007, where he has been deeply involved in chemistry related to separation of metals at ICSM during last ten years. His interest ranges from fundamental to applied studies, focusing on nuclear fuel cycle, as well as on precious metals and their use in circular economy.
Sébastien Ulrich is a CNRS research associate working at the Institut des Biomolécules Max Mousseron (IBMM) in Montpellier. He carried out his PhD with Prof. Jean-Marie Lehn at the University of Strasbourg and, subsequently, joined the groups of Prof. Harry Anderson (Oxford University, UK) as an EPSRC fellow and of Prof. Eric Kool (Stanford University, USA) as a Fulbright fellow. His current research interests focus on the generation and implementation of smart functional self-assemblies for biological applications such as nucleic acids recognition and delivery. In 2014, he was named Junior Distinguished member of the French Chemical Society, and was awarded the CNRS bronze medal in 2017. |
