MME Pascale MOREAU

Pascale Moreau obtained her Master Degree in biophysicochemistry and cellular and molecular biology under the supervision of Pr. Gérald Guillaumet and Pr. Michel Monsigny (Orléans, France). She received her Ph.D from the University of Orléans (France) in 1993 under the supervision of Pr. Gérard Coudert working on the synthesis and reactivity of 1,4-benzodioxine derivatives. She joined Pr. Victor A. Snieckus’s group at Waterloo University (Canada), as a postdoctoral fellow in 1994-1995, working on macrocycles synthesis and directed ortho-metalation. During a second post-doctoral position at Bristol-Myers-Squibb (Marne-la-Vallée, France) she focused on asymmetric synthesis. In 1996, she moved to Blaise Pascal University (Clermont-Ferrand, France) as a lecturer in the group of Pr. Michelle Prudhomme working on hemisynthesis of rebeccamycin derivatives. She was appointed as a Professor in 2007. Her current research is devoted to the development of new bioactive heteroaromatic compounds.
