Dominique Luneau is a full professor of chemistry at the University Claude Bernard Lyon 1 since 2002. He completed a PhD in coordination chemistry at the Laboratoire de Chimie de Coordination (CNRS) in Toulouse under the supervision of Professor Jean-Pierre Tuchagues. His thesis work focused on the synthesis of manganese complexes as a model for photosystems II. In 1988, he joined Professor Sigeo Kida’s group at the Institute of Molecular Sciences in Japan for a two-year post-doc with a JSPS fellowship. In 1990, he was hired by CNRS as a researcher to join Paul Rey’s group in Grenoble where he developed the coordination chemistry of nitronyl nitroxides free radicals. In 2002, he was hired as a Professor at the University Claude Bernard Lyon 1.
