Présentation

I am Professor of Physical and Theoretical Chemistry at the [Paul Sabatier University](http://www.univ-tlse3.fr/) of Toulouse, in the[ Laboratory of Physics and Chemistry of Nano-Objets (LPCNO)](http://lpcno.insa-toulouse.fr/?lang=en). In 1993 I received a PhD in theoretical chemistry from the same university. From 1997 to 1999 I occupied a two-year full-time research position at the CNRS, dedicated to the development of molecular pseudopotentials. In 2002, I obtained the so-called Habilitation à Diriger des Recherches, entitled “Functional chemical groups: actors or spectators?”. Among other responsibilities, I am the current head of the Physical and Chemical Modeling group of this laboratory, since 2007, member of the executive committee of the [NEXT project](http://www.next-toulouse.eu/), and head of the new NanoX Graduate School of Research in Toulouse. My research interests include Metal clusters and Nanoclusters, Coordination Chemistry and Theoretical Inorganic Chemistry, Peptidomimetic Compounds, Global Optimization Methods, Molecular Pseudopotentials, Spectroscopic Properties of Large Molecules, mainly using DFT methods. These last years, I am attempting to bridging the gap between molecular inorganic chemistry and nanochemistry.
