Prof. Patrick Giraudeau studied physics and chemistry at the University of Nantes, where he received his Ph.D. degree in 2008. Then he worked as a postdoctoral researcher in the Department of Chemical Physics at the Weizmann Institute of Science (Israel). In 2009, he became an associate professor at the University of Nantes, where he became a full professor in 2017, and where he now leads the analytical chemistry research group and the NMR facility. In 2014, he became a fellow of the Institut Universitaire de France, and he received a consolidator grant from the European Research Council in 2019. His research activities at the CEISAM research institute focus on the development of quantitative NMR methods for the analysis of complex mixtures, including applications to metabolomics and reaction monitoring. Research highlights include the development of fast multi-dimensional quantitative experiments at high field and also on benchtop spectrometers, as well as recent investigations in dissolution dynamic nuclear polarization. Prof. Patrick Giraudeau is the vice-president of the Ampere Society, a member of the Euromar Board of Trustees and of the executive board of MetaboHub. He is deputy editor of Magnetic Resonance in Chemistry (Wiley) and associate editor of Magnetic Resonance (Copernicus). He is the author of more than 120 peer-reviewed publications.
