Loranne Vernisse was a post-doctoral fellow in the group of Professor Eric Borguet at Temple University in Philadelphia, PA.  She was born in Moulins, France, where she spent her formative years.  She attended college in Clermont-Ferrand (France), at the Université Blaise Pascal, then in Toulouse (France), at the Université Paul Sabatier (Toulouse III) where she studied fundamental physics and nanophysics.  She obtained her Ph.D. in Nanophysics in 2014, under the mentorship of Professor Roland Coratger and Dr. Olivier Guillermet, where she investigated the structure and function of ruthenium molecular complexes by Low Temperature UHV-STM in order to create molecular logic gates.  She carried out in-situ characterization of 2D materials and investigate their chemical reactivity.
