Valentina Cuomo
PhD - Since June 2021
Previous: MSc – University of Salerno (Italy), University of Strasbourg (France); BSc – University of Salerno (Italy).
Publications: Eur. J. Org. Chem., 2020, 15, 2264.
Funding: EPSRC
Prizes: Erasmus+ Scholarships (for MSc); University of Salerno's student scholarship 2015-2018.
Biography: I grew up in Pompei in Southern Italy, and I obtained both my BSc and MSc from the University of Salerno. During my MSc, I have spent a semester at the University of Strasbourg (France), within the Erasmus+ programme. My master thesis concerned the development of asymmetric organocatalytic strategies for the synthesis of novel heterocyclic scaffolds, based on the isoxazol-5-one motif. In 2020, I joined the iCAT CDT-programme at the University of Manchester and, in June 2021, I started my doctoral studies in the Procter group. In my free time, I enjoy cooking and baking cakes. I love hiking and outdoor activities.
