Ronald Jerozal

Ronald Jerozal received his B.S. in chemistry and B.A. in mathematics from the University at Buffalo in 2019. He then continued his studies at Cornell University where he received his Ph.D. in chemistry in 2024. Jerozal's doctoral work focused on improving the synthesis of porous materials known as metal–organic frameworks, and on enhancing the hydrofluorocarbon greenhouse gas capture properties of these materials. His current research interests focus on the catalytic properties of metal cluster compounds for organic synthesis.
