CJW initiated his academic career 2004 as a PhD student at Lund University under the directions of Prof. Kenneth Wärnmark. The main efforts during his time as a PhD student centered on various aspects of supramolecular chemistry, with particular emphasis on hydrogen bonding and its utilization in the construction of discrete molecular aggregates. However, contribution from this period to the scientific community spans over multiple sub-disciplines of chemistry, including solid-state chemistry, genetically engineered cellular organisms for synthetic applications and ultra fast structural dynamics.
He then took up a postdoctoral position in Prof. Villy Sundström group at Lund University where he got the opportunity to contribute to key experiments of fundamental importance for the general molecular designs in solar energy applications. To capitalize on the background in fundamental organic chemistry and experience with excited state dynamics, he joined the research group of Prof. Corey Stephenson, then at Boston University, in 2011 to explore the upcoming field of photoredox catalysis. During the initial phase at BU efforts were concentrated on the utilization of different mode of visible-light activation of various catalytic systems to engage molecular entities in novel transformations.
Thereafter, he joined the Department of Chemistry and Molecular Biology at Gothenburg University to established his own group active within the field of antibiotic development and sustainable chemistry.
