九州影院

Biography

Karine Philippot is presently research director at CNRS, at the Laboratory of Coordination 九州影院 in Toulouse (LCC-Toulouse), where she is the head of the group 鈥淓ngineering of Metal Nanoparticles鈥�. She studied biochemistry and then organometallic chemistry at the University of Rennes (Pr P.H. Dixneuf's group).

After a PhD degree in molecular chemistry and homogeneous catalysis gained at the University of Toulouse (1993) she had a postdoctoral position in the department of catalysis at Rhodia-Lyon (1994-95). Then she was appointed CNRS permanent researcher in the group of B. Chaudret at the LCC-Toulouse  in 1996, and became a group leader in the same institute in 2008.

Her current research interests cover the design of metal nanoparticles and composite nanomaterials by applying the concepts of molecular chemistry together with their application, mainly in colloidal or supported catalysis and in energy production.
