Imtiaz Khan received his PhD degree from The University of Nottingham in 2015, under the direction of Professor Hon Wai Lam where he developed new synthetic methodologies involving C\u2012H functionalization of inert bonds for the synthesis of carbo- and heterocycles. Later, he worked as a postdoctoral research associate in the same group for one year. He then spent two years (2016-2018) as a Leverhulme Trust research fellow at Cardiff University, while investigating Frustrated Lewis Pairs (FLPs)-catalyzed hydrogenation\/transfer hydrogenation processes. Imtiaz joined the Micklefield group as a Research Fellow in Integrated Catalysis in 2018 where he is focusing on integration of enzymes with metal catalysis. His research interests include the development of novel synthetic methodologies for the efficient synthesis of biologically active heterocycles, frustrated Lewis pairs (FLP) chemistry and integrated chemo- and biocatalysis.<\/p>\n
