In 1991, he obtained his PhD from the Universite Paris XI, France, under the supervision of Prof. H.-P. Husson and Prof. J. C. Quirion. After 18 months post-doctoral research with Prof. Sir D. H. R. Barton at Texas A&M University in USA, he joined the Institut de Chimie des Substances Naturelles (CNRS, France) as Charge de Recherche and was promoted to Director of Research 2nd class in 2000 and then 1st class in 2006. He moved to Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Lausanne (EPFL), Switzerland, in 2010 as a full professor. His main research interests center on the development of novel synthetic methods, their application in the synthesis of bioactive natural products, and the design of novel multicomponent reactions. He has published over 220 research articles and the well-received book Multicomponenet Reactions (Wiley-VCH, 2005). Qian Wang received her BSc and MSc degree from Lanzhou University (P.R. China) under the guidance of Prof. Y. Li. She obtained her PhD degree from Chinese University of Hong Kong under the supervision of Prof. H.N.C. Wong.
