PABLO ANDRES CASTRO LATORRE

Presentation

Pablo Castro Latorre obtained his degree in chemistry on 2016 and his master’s degree on chemical sciences on 2018 under the supervision of prof. Fernando Mendizábal at the Faculty of Sciences of the University of Chile, where he used ab initio methods to describe the reactivity and the role of non-covalent interactions in Phthalocyanine-based materials.

In 2021 he joined prof. Konstantin Neyman and Dr. Albert Bruix group at the University of Barcelona for his PhD, where his thesis was focused on the study of nanostructured catalysts supported on cerium oxide surfaces, ranging from metal particles to thin films.

After his PhD, Pablo joined the Atomistic and Molecular Modelling for Catalysis group led by Dr. Max García-Melchor at CIC energiGUNE.
