Guanajuato, Gto., August 26, 2016.- The University of Guanajuato (UG) receives students coming from diverse places around the world with the objective to obtain a mutual benefit. Kranthi Galem Kishore, graduate from the Ph.D. in Chemistry, is an outstanding example.

During his stay at the University of Guanajuato, Kranthi –from India—developed several research projects based in the use of multicomponent reactions, which were published in indexed magazines of thorough international refereeing, such as Angewante Chemie International Edition and Tetrahedron Letters. It is worthy to mention that the most part of his thesis was developed at UG.

Congruently with his Ph.D. thesis, Kranthi made a stay at the University of Barcelona (UB), where he developed a multidisciplinary project which included a multicomponent process in the synthesis of heterocyclic nitrogen compounds, as well as the computing study of the mechanism of reaction and live study of the antiparasitic properties in collaboration with the researcher Dr. Rodolfo Lavilla Griffols.

Another remarkable aspect of his research group is the development of efficient synthetic methodologies (good global performances in few reaction stages) to access the molecules of chemical-medicinal interest, which constitutes an area of relevant impact for modern society.

In an interview, the graduate from the doctorate mentioned that UG provides excellent opportunities to strengthen the academic formation, as well as diverse supports that allowed him to develop comprehensively.

His main research line is the development of sustainable processes that allow access to high added value molecules based in the use of multicomponent reactions. The doctoral thesis recently defended by the Hindi student is a clear example that contributes directly to the development of sustainable processes, which are congruent with environment care and allow to satisfy the actual needs without compromising the resources of future generations.

It is important to mention that Dr. Galem Kishore was advised by the professors and researcher of the Division of Natural and Exact Sciences, Dr. Maria del Rocío Gámez Montaño, ascribed to the Department of Chemistry from the University of Guanajuato and who is currently a national leader in the area of multicomponent.

Dr. Gámez Montaño recognized the support from the National Council of Science and Technology (CONACyT) and DAIP, for the development of projects and so the students of UG can make research stays abroad, since these allow to strengthen their comprehensive development.
