Yohann CARTIGNY

Yohann Cartigny is an Associate Professor in Materials Chemistry at the Laboratoire SMS, Rouen Normandie University. His work focuses on phase diagrams, crystallization processes, and solid-state equilibria in organic and pharmaceutical materials. He holds a PhD from the University of Lorraine (2004) and has been at Rouen since 2005.

Education: PhD in Physics and Chemistry of Matter/Materials (University of Lorraine, 2004), followed by earlier degrees in Physics and Chemistry (Bachelor, 1999; Master, 2001). His research explores solid-liquid, solid-vapor, and solid-solid equilibria, with applications in pharmaceutical and industrial crystallization. He teaches inorganic chemistry and related topics.

Research interests include crystal growth mechanisms, polymorphism, and chiral discrimination. His publications span over 15 years, with recent focus on drug solid-state forms, solvate stability, and material purification. He has supervised multiple PhD students and co-authored patents in crystallization engineering.

Skills include thermal analysis (DSC/TGA), X-ray diffraction, and phase diagram determination. His work bridges fundamental chemistry with industrial applications in pharmaceuticals and materials science.
