Peter I. Dalko was born in 1960 in Budapest (Hungary). He studied chemistry at the Budapest TechnicalUniversity (Hungary) and obtained his doctorate with Dr. S. D. Géro in Gif-sur-Yvette (France). After undertaking postdoctoralresearch with Sir Derek H. Barton at Texas A&M University (USA) and Prof. Yoshito Kishi at Harvard University he joined Prof. Janine Cossy's research group at the ESPCI in Paris. His current main research interest is the development of novel asymmetric reactions.
