Our Philosophy
True innovation arises from the synergy between creative design and mechanistic rigor. We aim at pushing the boundaries of organic synthesis by exploring unconventional synthetic pathways to solve long-standing challenges in molecular construction.
This goal cannot be fulfilled when compromising the resources of tomorrow. The group actively works in designing new synthetic strategies that are not only efficient, but also sustainable and affordable to minimize environmental footprints and enhance a circular economy.
What We Offer
We provide a dynamic and supportive research environment where professional growth goes hand in hand with scientific discovery. In our group, we foster a vibrant and inclusive atmosphere where curiosity is the primary driver of innovation. We encourage our members to embrace unconventional thinking to tackle complex challenges, offering everyone the chance to contribute to high-impact projects at the very frontiers of chemistry.
Beyond the bench, we prioritize professional development by supporting participation in scientific forums and fostering collaborations with international research partners, including opportunities for external stays to broaden scientific perspectives. In addition, we actively promote a healthy work-life balance, encouraging our members to find inspiration outside the laboratory and to enjoy the city's endless social and outdoor activities.
Our commitment to excellence is rooted in a strict policy of non-discrimination: we believe that diversity of thought and background is essential to groundbreaking research, and we ensure an ethical, respectful, and equitable workplace for all.
How to Apply
We are always looking for creative and dedicated individuals to join our journey.
Every year we have positions available for bachelor's thesis (TFG) and master students (TFM).
