Biography

Born in 1973, I am a former pupil of the Ecole Normale Supérieure (Ulm; D/S 93) and studied at the University Pierre et Marie Curie (Paris 6). I received my Ph.D. degree in 2000 under the supervision of Prof. A. Proust and Prof. P. Gouzerh. My doctoral work dealt with organometallic derivatives of polyoxometalates.

After a postdoctoral stay at the University of Aachen (RWTH) with Prof. U. Kölle, I joined the group of Prof. M. Fontecave in Grenoble in 2001 where I obtained a position in the Life Science Division of the CEA (now included in the Fundamental Research Division of CEA).

Since 2016, I have led the  as Research Director in the Laboratory of Chemistry and Biology of Metals (a research unit cooperated by CEA, CNRS and Univ. Grenoble Alpes) in Grenoble.

My research interests are in bioinspired chemistry and artificial photosynthesis. My group targets the structural and functional modelisation of hydrogenases, the design of artificial organometallic proteins and the design of novel nanomaterials for hydrogen photo- and electro-production, hydrogen oxidation and CO2 reduction.

I received the "Grand Prix Mergier-Bourdeix de l'Académie des Sciences" in 2011. In 2012, I was granted a Consolidator Grant from the European Research Council (ERC). I currently act as Chair of the Scientific Advisory Board of the ARCANE Excellence Laboratory Network (LABEX) for bio-driven chemistry in Grenoble and co-chair of the French research Network (GDR) on solar fuels.
