Jonathan GravesProf. Jonathan P. Graves is a Senior Scientist at EPFL and Honorary Visiting Professor at the University of York, UK. He achieved first class joint honours in Electronic Engineering and Mathematics from the University of Nottingham, UK in 1996. He completed his Ph.D. in Theoretical Mechanics from the University of Nottingham, UK, three years later in 1999. During his Ph.D. he was based in the Culham theory group of the United Kingdom Atomic Energy Authority, developing kinetic descriptions of the internal kink instability, and participating in deuterium-tritium experimental analysis in the Joint European Torus. After a short time in industry, and a postdoc at Nottingham University, he took a position at the Swiss Plasma Center at EPFL, becoming a Senior Scientist in 2014, and became an Honorary Visiting Professor at the University of York, UK, in 2020. In 2015 he became a member of the EUROfusion Scientific and Technical Advisory Committee (STAC) and a member of the EUROfusion DEMO Technical Advisory Group. He is on the editorial board for the journal Plasma Physics and Controlled Fusion, and in 2020 became Scientific Secretary of the Varenna-Lausanne International Workshop in Theory of Fusion Plasmas.
Nicolai CramerNicolai Cramer est né à Stuttgart, en Allemagne ; il a étudié la chimie à l'université de Stuttgart, où il a obtenu son diplôme en 2003, et son doctorat en 2005 sous la direction du professeur Sabine Laschat. Après un stage de recherche à l'université d'Osaka, au Japon, en 2006 il a rejoint le groupe du professeur Barry M. Trost à l'université de Stanford en tant que postdoc. A partir de 2007, il a travaillé sur son habilitation à l'ETH Zurich sous la direction du Professeur Erick M. Carreira et a reçu la venia legendi en 2010. En 2010, il a été nommé comme professeur assistant à l'EPF de Lausanne et a été promu professeur associé en 2013 et professeur ordinaire en 2015. Son principal programme de recherche englobe les transformations énantiosélectives catalysées par des métaux et leur mise en œuvre pour la synthèse de molécules biologiquement actives.Profile (Angew.
