Dr Efraim Reyes graduated from the University of the Basque Country in 2001 and received his Ph D in 2006 in the Department of Organic Chemistry at the Faculty of Science at the same University. After postdoctoral studies in 2007-2008 at the Aarhus University, under the supervision of Professor Dr Karl A. Jørgensen, he joined the Research Group of Asymmetric Synthesis at the Department of Organic Chemistry II at the University of the Basque Country. Current research interests focus on the design of new methodologies in asymmetric synthesis, especially asymmetric organocatalysis, and the stereocontrolled synthesis of pharmacologically active compounds. Dr Reyes has authored more than 20 research papers (2 review articles) and 3 book chapters all dealing with asymmetric synthesis.
