Ana Cristina Garcia Alvarez

Ana got a B.S. in chemistry at UAEMex working on lanthanides and main group chemistry, later got a M.Sc. and finally a Ph.D. at UNAM (México), working on the synthesis and characterization of cubane-type complexes for water oxidation, mimicking the OEC, under supervision of Prof. Ivan Castillo. She is currently a postdoc at the University of California, Irvine under the supervision of Prof. Jenny Yang, where she is exploring heterobimetallic systems for CO2 activation. Ana is interested in inorganic synthesis, mostly multimetallic systems, and electrochemistry.
