Dominique Roberge's Biography

Dominique Roberge, Group Leader, Lonza Group Ltd

My undergraduate study and master degree in chemical engineering were performed at Laval University (Quebec City, Canada) in 1996. I completed my doctoral degree at the University of Technology Aachen (Germany) in the field of heterogeneous catalysis. I joined Lonza in March 2001 after completing my PhD. I was in charge of reaction calorimetry and safety assessment. In February 2003, Lonza started a new project called Microreactor Technology and I became at the same time the Project Leader until July 2007. From August 2007 to July 2008 I worked as Associate Professor at the University of Ottawa. I re-joined Lonza in September 2008 with the goal to pursue Microreactor Technology and bring this technology as a standard method for large scale production.
