Professor Nicolas Giuseppone
Nicolas Giuseppone received his PhD in asymmetric catalysis (laboratory of Prof. H.B. Kagan), performed a post-doctoral research in total synthesis (laboratory of Prof. K.C. Nicolaou), and entered the field of supramolecular chemistry as a Chargé de Recherche CNRS (laboratory of Prof. J.-M. Lehn). In 2008 he started his own research group, became Associate Professor, and was awarded the ERC Starting Grant from the European Research Council in 2010. In 2013 he was promoted Full Professor of Chemistry at the University of Strasbourg (Unistra) and nominated as a junior member of the Institut Universitaire the France (IUF). In 2016, he was promoted Distinguished Professor (Classe Exceptionnelle) at the Unistra.
He was deputy director of the Institut Charles Sadron (2012-2023) and the director of the Research Federation on Materials and Nanoscience for the Grand Est region (2018-2023).
His research interests are focused on supramolecular chemistry, molecular machines, and functional materials.
In 2023 he is distinguished as a senior member of the Institut Universitaire de France (IUF, fundamental Chair).
In 2024 he is awarded the Silver Medal of the CNRS for the importance of his research work.
