About Me
Christos P. Constantinides is an Assistant Professor of Organic Chemistry in the Department of Natural Sciences at the University of Michigan–Dearborn. He earned his BSc in Chemistry from the University of Cyprus and completed his PhD at the University of Cambridge, where he studied organic and main group radicals under the supervision of Prof. Jeremy M. Rawson.
He conducted postdoctoral research at Vanderbilt University and North Carolina State University, working with Prof. Piotr Kaszynski and Prof. David Shultz on the magnetic, optical, and transport properties of stable organic radicals.
Dr. Constantinides joined the University of Michigan–Dearborn faculty in 2017, where he continues to advance research in synthetic and applied heterocyclic organic chemistry. He has published numerous journal articles and book chapters and has presented his work at international conferences, establishing a strong presence in the field of organic chemistry.
