About Isaac


Hailing from Girona, Catalunya, Prof. Isaac Garcia-Bosch did both his undergraduate and PhD degrees in Chemistry at the University of Girona, where he worked with Prof. Miquel Costas and Prof. Xavi Ribas. Following this, he was awarded the prestigious Marie Curie IOF from the EU to pursue a post-doctoral fellowship in Chemistry with Prof. Ken Karlin at The Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, MD. In 2015, he started his independent career as an Assistant Professor in the Department of Chemistry at the Southern Methodist University in Dallas, Texas. Currently, he is an Associate Professor of Chemistry at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. His research interests weave together inorganic synthesis and mechanism, mechanistic organic chemistry, and inspiration from nature’s best catalysts, metalloenzymes, to understand how metal-dependent reactions work and how to improve them.
