Professor Charette’s research aims at developing new catalytic methods for the stereoselective synthesis of bioactive organic compounds, which are more powerful than existing methods and compatible with sustainable chemistry. His research is contributing to the development of new molecules with applications in pharmaceuticals, agrochemistry, biology, and food and materials science.

Professor Collins’ group develops catalytic and asymmetric strategies for the synthesis of organic intermediates difficult to prepare using current technology, with the emphasis on syntheses applying green chemistry principles and exploiting modern technologies such as continuous-flow synthesis.

Professor Lebel’s group examines the development of new synthetic methodologies in organic chemistry based on the use of organometallic catalysts to produce molecules with useful properties.
