About the speaker

Claire Tonnelé began her scientific career at the University of Bordeaux (France), where she specialized in theoretical and computational chemistry. This first step took her to Belgium to pursue a PhD on modeling the optical properties of organic molecules for the development of cation sensors. After postdoctoral stays in Australia, France, and Spain, she developed a profile as a computational chemist in materials science. Since 2023, she has been an Ikerbasque Research Fellow at the DIPC. Her research activity focuses on the study of organic (functional) systems for their application in organic electronics. She actively participates in different events to spread scientific culture and inspire vocations among girls.
