Uroš Grošelj studied chemistry at the University of Ljubljana and received his B.Sc. in 2000. He continued his studies under the supervision of Professor Jurij Svete and received his PhD in 2004. His PhD work focused on the preparation of new camphor derived heterocycles using enaminone methodology. In 2008/2009 he was a post-doctoral fellow in the group of Professor Dieter Seebach at the ETH Zürich, Switzerland, where he worked on the isolation and X-ray structural characterization of intermediates in organocatalysis with diarylprolinol ethers and imidazolidinones. In 2014, he became an Assistant Professor and in 2018 an Associate Professor at the Faculty of Chemistry and Chemical Technology, University of Ljubljana. He is author or co-author of 80 scientific papers and recipient of Futurum Prize and Krka Prize national awards. His research interests encompass synthesis of heterocyclic compounds, stereoselective synthesis, chemistry of terpene enaminones, and organocatalysis.
