报告人简介：Christian Serre is a CNRS research director. He obtained his PhD in materials’ chemistry in 1999 under the supervision of prof. Gérard Férey in Versailles, France. After a post-doc in USA at Rhodia, he started his CNRS career in 2001 at the Lavoisier Institute in Versailles where he was one of the main discover of the well-known MIL class of MOF materials. He created in 2016 at Ecole Normale Supérieure, ESPCI Paris within the PSL University, a new Institute dedicated to porous solids and related composites for health, the environment and energy. To date (August 2025), he has published more than 460 articles and holds 47 patent families (H-factor > 140). He is one of the co-founders of SquairTech, a start-up dedicated to indoor air quality. He has received many awards and is a member of the French Academy of Sciences as well as the European academy of sciences.

报告简介：The importance of the so-called Metal-Organic Frameworks has been recently recognised by the Nobel committee. At the Institut des Matériaux Poreux de Paris, and previously at Institut Lavoisier de Versailles, we have devoted a long-term effort to the synthesis and structural characterization of new functional, robust, porous , scalable MOFs based on high valence transition metal cations constructed from various types of cheap ligands (carboxylates, phosphonates, phenolates). Al of Fe carboxylates based MOFs, whose chemistry in solution is in most cases “easier” to control, have been extensively reported for gas phase separation or the capture of CO2, assisted recently by AI tools. We have recently investigated the use of MOFs for the capture, sensing or degradation of air pollutants. In the field of catalysis, we have explored the very challenging chemistry of Ti-MOFs, due to their unique photocatalytic properties in order to produce hydrogen from water or hydrogen from formic acid. Zr or Ce(IV) MOFs have also been explored as alternative MOFs catalysts, including their preparation under green and mild synthetic routes, including the preparation of highly defective ultra-small particles of MOFs. Finally, I will briefly report recent developments in the field of nanomedicine to treat antibiotic resistance or accelerate wound healing.
