Felipe García is originally from the coastal town of Gijon (Spain) and gained both his B.Sc. and M.Sc. degrees in Chemistry at the local Oviedo University (Spain). In 2001, he moved to the University of Cambridge (UK) to carry out his graduate studies on main group imides and phosphides as a Cambridge European Trust and Newton Trust Scholar under the supervision of Prof. Dominic Wright. He then gained Junior Research Fellowship at Wolfson College (UK, 2005) and was appointed College Lecturer in Inorganic Chemistry at Newnham and Trinity Colleges (UK, 2006). In March 2011, he moved to Nanyang Technological University (Singapore) as Assistant Professor, where he developed different aspects of main group chemistry. In 2022, he moved back to his alma mater (i.e., University of Oviedo) as a Margarita Salas Senior researcher (funded by FICYT). The Margarita Salas Senior programme is a new scheme from the Foundation for the Promotion in Asturias of Applied Scientific Research and Technology (FICYT) to attract highly qualified well-established researchers to R&D and higher education institutions in the Principality of Asturias (Spain). In late 2023, he will move to Monash University in Australia continue his research career. Felipe has published over 90 papers on Main Group Chemistry and maintains a strong interest in the synthesis of novel compounds for industrial and biological applications.
