Olivier Baslé

Dr. Olivier Baslé (CV)

Olivier Baslé completed his Master degree under the supervision of Prof. P.H Dixneuf at the university of Rennes in 2005 and obtained his PhD degree in 2009 at McGill University under the guidance of Prof. C.-J. Li. After postdoctoral studies with Prof. J. Rodriguez and T. Constantieux in Marseille and Dr. D. Bourrisou in Toulouse, he was appointed Chargé de Recherche (CNRS) at Ecole Nationale Supérieure de Chimie de Rennes in 2011 (Mauduit Group). In 2018, he joined the CNRS Laboratory of Coordination Chemistry (LCC) in Toulouse. His research program focuses on the development of selective catalytic transformations using N-heterocyclic carbene-Metal complexes. His research interests include organic synthesis, organometallic chemistry and homogeneous catalysis.
