Bio sketch
Gonzalo Jiménez-Osés received his PhD at Universidad de La Rioja (UR) working on experimental organic synthesis, then moved to Universidad de Zaragoza-CSIC first as a postdoctoral associate and then as a lecturer working on heterogeneous metal catalysis. He then moved to University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) first as a postdoctoral fellow then research associate working with Ken Houk on computational chemistry. After a short period back at UR as a Ramon y Cajal research fellow, he is currently leader of the Computational Chemical Biology group at CIC bioGUNE since 2019 and Ikerbasque Research Associate since 2020. His research is highly collaborative and cross-disciplinary by nature, residing in the interphase between Chemistry, Biology and Computation, and using state-of-the art multiscale simulation methods to predict and understand complex chemical and biological processes such as reaction mechanisms, protein structure, dynamics and function and matter properties. Gonzalo has published around 160 articles and has received a number of prestigious awards such as the RSEQ Young Group Leader Award, the UR Young Investigator Award, the Suschem Postdoc Award, the Amgen Award for Postdoctoral Research and the MBI Research Excellence Award. He is also actively involved in outreach activities and bringing chemistry closer to society, thus being the president of the Young Chemists division of the Royal Spanish Society of Chemistry (RSEQ) and secretary of the RSEQ Chemistry & Computation group that he recently contributed to create.
