En résumé

I am a scientist with a strong background in organometallic chemistry with a particular enthusiasm for homogenous and heterogeneous catalysis. I have more than ten years experience in research, and successfully developed a number of catalytic systems for a wide range of applications: alkane metathesis, olefin metathesis, alkyne metathesis, methane to methanol, trimerisation of ethylene, decomposition of NO, polymerisation and ammoxidation.

I have a particular focus for applied research and thus worked on several project in collaboration with industrial partners: Air Liquid, British Petroleum and Toyota.

I also have a well-built experience in managing several projects in the same time as well as supervising a team.
