Tadashi Mori obtained his PhD in 1997 from Kyoto University and moved to Osaka University from 1998, where he is now Associate Professor. During these periods, he also worked as a postdoctoral and a JSPS research fellow in Houston University (Prof. Jay K. Kochi), a visiting professor in Georgetown University (Prof. Richard G. Weiss), an Alexander von Humboldt Fellow in Universität Müster (Prof. Stefan Grimme), and a Fostering Joint International Research Fellow in Technische Universität München (Prof. Thorsten Bach). His main research interests include the chiroptical properties of ground- and excited-state molecules, (supra) molecular complexes, and their photochemistry.
