Jesus Sanjosé-Orduna

Jesús was born and raised near Barcelona, Spain. He obtained his B.Sc. and M.Sc. in organic chemistry at the University of Barcelona, under the supervision of Prof. Vilarrasa and Prof. Costa. Shortly afterwards, he joined the Pérez-Temprano group at the Institute of Chemical Research of Catalonia in Tarragona, Spain. His thesis consists of the fundamental understanding of cobalt-catalyzed C-H transformations, to develop more innovative and efficient catalytic processes through rational design. As a visiting student, he spent three months in the Macgregor group, in Edinburgh, Scotland, learning the intricacies of computational chemistry, to help him in his mechanistic investigations.
