Clara Vega

My name is Clara Vega, I’m 26 and I’m from France. I did my bachelor in Biology and Chemistry in my hometown at the University of Le Havre. After that, I did the first year of my MSc in Pharmaceutical Sciences at Nantes University and the second year in Molecular and Therapeutical Chemistry supervised by Prof. François-Xavier Felpin. My first internship was focused on the synthesis of new nitrogen heterocycles and their functionalization, under the supervision of Dr. Arnaud Tessier and Pr. Jacques Lebreton (CEISAM UMR 6230 CNRS-Nantes Université), in partnership with Janssen laboratories. During my second year of MSc. I completed a 6 month industrial internship at Sanofi Chimie Sisteron, where I developed a new synthetic route for a pharmaceutical compound using cheap and available metal catalysts and photochemistry. After this internship I was hired for 4 months at Sanofi Chimie as a chemist in the automation platform in design of experiment. In January 2023 I joined the Noël Research Group as a PhD candidate within the Marie Skłodowska-Curie doctoral network GreenDigiPharma
