Ruben Martin was born in Barcelona (Spain) in 1976. After receiving his PhD at the Universitat de Barcelona with Prof. Antoni Riera, he moved in January 2004 to the Max-Planck-Insitut für Kohlenforschung (Mülheim an der Ruhr, Germany), as a Humboldt postdoctoral fellow with Prof. Alois Fürstner, where he worked on iron-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions. In May 2005, he undertook further postdoctoral studies at the Massachusets Institute of Technology (USA) with Prof. Stephen L. Buchwald where he developed new metal-catalyzed C–C and C–N bond-forming reactions. In September 2008, he initiated his independent career as an Associate Professor and subsequently as ICREA Research Professor (Spain). His research interests concern the discovery and development of synthetically useful organometallic methodologies.
Manuel van Gemmeren was born in Madrid (Spain), and raised in both Spain and Germany. After studying chemistry at the Albert Ludwig University of Freiburg (Germany) until 2010, he conducted his doctoral studies in the lab of Prof. Benjamin List and obtained his degree in 2014 (summa cum laude). Subsequently, he joined the group of Prof. Rubén Martín for postdoctoral studies. From 2016 onwards, he established his independent research group at the University of Münster (Germany). In 2022, he joined the Otto Diels Institute of Organic Chemistry at Kiel University (Germany) as tenured professor for Organic Chemistry. Research in the van Gemmeren Lab focusses on the development of novel synthetic methods, typically based on Pd-catalyzed C–H activation, that enable challenging transformations to proceed with catalyst-controlled reactivity and selectivity.
Debabrata Maiti received his Ph.D. from John Hopkins University (USA) in 2008 under the supervision of Prof. Kenneth D. Karlin. After postdoctoral studies at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT; USA) with Prof. Stephen L. Buchwald (2008–2010), he joined the Department of Chemistry at IIT Bombay (India) in 2011, where he is currently Professor. His research interests are focused on the development of new and sustainable synthetic and catalytic methods.
