Prof. Kristin Bartik

Professor Kristin Bartik holds a degree in Chemical engineering from the Université libre de Bruxelles (1986), a Master’s degree in Food Science from Cornell University (USA, 1988), and a PhD in Applied Sciences (ULB, 1992) for research undertaken in collaboration with the University of Oxford on the use of NMR to elucidate protein structure. Before being appointed at the ULB, she worked at the Université de Nantes (France). Kristin is Full Professor since 2013 and directs a research group working in the field of physical organic chemistry (molecular recognition).

After having been Vice-Rector of the ULB in charge of University Strategy and Institutional Relations (2017-2020), Kristin was appointed in October 2020 Counsellor for Diplomatic Relations to the Rector. Since 2005, she is Executive Director of the Fondation Philippe Wiener – Maurice Anspach (https://fwa.ulb.be).
In March 2023, Kristin has been elected Titular Member of the Classe Technologie et Société of the Académie royale de Belgique.
