Career edit

Guilard received the "Agrégation de Sciences Physiques" Degree in 1966 and a PhD in 1971 from the University of Burgundy.[2][4] He was a Postdoctoral Fellow at the University of Basel, Switzerland and at the University of Darmstadt, Germany from 1972 to 1973,[2] and subsequently has been at the University of Burgundy from 1973 to present.[2][4] At the University of Burgundy he has been the director of the Laboratory of Synthesis and Organometallic Electrosynthesis[2][4] and the Molecular Engineering Laboratory for Separation and Applications of Gases.[2][5]

Guilard was Scientific Director of the Department of Chemistry at the French Ministry of Education, Technology and Research,[2][4] and then Managing Director for the partnership of local authorities in the Partnership Branch of the Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique, CNRS.[2][4]

Guilard founded two companies, Chematech[2][6][7] and PorphyChem[2][7][8] which produce tetraazamacrocycles, porphyrins, phthalocyanines and related compounds, respectively, for use in research, industrial applications[9][10] and health care.[11] He is also a member of the advisory board of LARS - Ligament Augmentation and Reconstruction System[2][7] which provides synthetic ligaments for soft tissue repair.

Guilard holds 23 patents, including a technique for decontamination of radioactive elements from wastewater,[2][12] a process for removing lead from drinking water[2][13][14] and a carbon monoxide sensor.[2][15] He has published more than 475 articles in peer-reviewed journals[2][16][17] and has co-edited several influential book series including The Porphyrin Handbook,[2][18] the Handbook of Porphyrin Science,[2][19] the World Scientific Series on Chemistry, Energy and the Environment,[2][20] and the World Scientific Series: From Biomaterials Towards Medical Devices.[2][21][22] He was an associate editor for the journal Dalton Transactions[2] and has served on the editorial boards for Dalton Transactions,[2][23] the Journal of Porphyrins and Phthalocyanines[2][24][25] and the New Journal of Chemistry.[2]
