Biography
Professor Chipot received his PhD in Theoretical Chemistry in 1994 from the Henri Poincaré University, in France, conducting research on intermolecular potentials with a fellowship from the Roussel Uclaf Institute. Following a post-doctorate in the Department of Pharmaceutical Chemistry of the University of California in San Francisco, he became a National Research Council postdoctoral fellow at the NASA Ames Research Center. He joined the CNRS in 1996 at the University of Lorraine, and received his habilitation in 2000. He was promoted research director in 2006, and since 2012, he has been directing an Associate International Laboratory established between the CNRS and the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.
