Marine Desage-El Murr is professor and group leader at the University of Strasbourg (France) since 2017. She obtained her PhD in 2003 under the supervision of Dr. Charles Mioskowski at the Commissariat à l'Energie Atomique (CEA Saclay, France). She was then a post-doctoral research fellow at the University of Newcastle-upon-Tyne (UK) working in the groups of Prof. Roger J. Griffin and Prof. Bernard T. Golding. In 2007, she joined the Institut Parisien de Chimie Moléculaire (IPCM) at the Université Pierre et Marie Curie (UPMC) in Paris as assistant professor. Her research interests are centered around bioinspired catalysis, ligand-based electron transfers, and redox catalysis.
