Background
With over 580 publications amassing 34.392 citations and an H-index of 91, his career has always been characterized by a high interdisciplinarity and impact in chemistry, physics and materials science. Coronado has been at the forefront of Molecular Magnetism during the last 25 years making seminal contributions in the chemical design, physical characterization and theoretical modelling of molecular nanomagnets and multifunctional materials. He leads two ERC AdG in Molecular Spintronics and 2D materials. His relevance goes well beyond Molecular Magnetism and is also strongly appreciated in the areas of Polyoxometalate Chemistry, Molecular Conductors and Superconductors, Molecular Electronics and, more recently, Molecular Spintronics, Quantum Computing (Magnetic Molecules as qubits) and 2D materials.
Eugenio Coronado is the Director of the Molecular Science Institute (ICMol) at the University of Valencia and of the European Institute of Molecular Magnetism (EIMM).
