PIERRE-HENRI LANOE

Dr. Pierre-Henri Lanoë earned his PhD in 2009 from the Institut des Sciences Chimiques de Rennes (ISCR), where his research focused on cyclometalated platinum(II) complexes for the detection of heavy metal cations. Following his doctoral studies, he joined the Laboratoire de Chimie de l’École Normale Supérieure de Lyon, collaborating with Dr. Chantal Andraud and Dr. Olivier Maury on the development of two-photon absorbing chromophores for photodynamic therapy (PDT). During this period, he successfully contributed to interdisciplinary projects.
In 2010, he moved to the United Kingdom to work at Northumbria University under the supervision of Dr. Valery N. Kozhevnikov (funded by the EPSRC), where he synthesized homobimetallic platinum(II) and iridium(III) complexes.
In 2012, he joined the Chimie Inorganique Redox (CIRe) team at Université Joseph Fourier (Grenoble) as a postdoctoral fellow and later as a temporary teaching and research assistant (ATER), working with Prof. Frédérique Loiseau. His research focused on photocatalysts based on ruthenium(II)-copper(II) dyads for oxygen activation and oxidation processes.
In 2014, he was appointed a CNRS Researcher at Sorbonne Université, where he worked on luminescent iridium(III) and transition metal complexes with carbene ligands, advancing the field of emissive metal-carbene systems.
In 2018, he returned to Grenoble, joining the CIRe team at Université Grenoble Alpes, where he continues his research on luminescent iridium(III) and platinum(II) complexes. Building on his expertise in photophysical and redox properties, he has recently expanded his work to photodynamic therapy (PDT), with a focus on developing novel metal-based photosensitizers for biomedical applications. His latest publications in this field explore two-photon excitation approaches for enhanced PDT efficacy.
