EWHA WOMANS UNIVERSITY

Jean Bouffard Professor

Chemistry & Nanoscience

Professor Jean Bouffard has been a faculty member in the Department of Chemistry and Nano Science at Ewha Womans University since 2012, after completing a B. Sc. in chemistry from McGill University (Canada, 2002), a Ph. D. in organic chemistry from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (USA, 2008), and pursuing research in Japan and the United States. He heads the Laboratory of Molecular Design, which focuses on the chemistry of organic materials such as π-conjugated molecules and polymers, organo-main group chemistry, as well organometallic chemistry and catalysis.
