Kruno gained his Ph.D. in coordination chemistry in 2009 in the Department of Chemistry, University of Zagreb. After Marie-Curie NewFelPro FP7 fellowship in the Friščić group (McGill University, Montreal, Canada), he started in 2016 as a Head of Laboratory for Green Synthesis at RBI in Zagreb. As of 2021, he founded Laboratory for Applied and Sustainable Chemistry. His main scientific focus is on developing mechanochemical and solvent-free procedures for synthesizing various classes of functional materials, from supramolecular receptors and organic compounds to highly-porous functional metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and their nonconventional composites. The particular part of his research involves designing new and advanced milling reactors and developing new methodologies for in situ monitoring of milling and aging reactions. These include synchrotron X-ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy, and thermal methods. He collaborates with scientific groups worldwide (McGill University, Montreal; Northwestern University, Evanston; Max Planck Institute for Solid-State Research, Stuttgart; Leibnitz Institute for Solid State and Materials Research (IFW), Dresden; ESRF Grenoble; BAM Berlin; DESY Hamburg; Kemijski Inštitut, Ljubljana). Kruno loves to spend his free time outdoors climbing, skiing, and hiking, best in the company of his wife Mia and daughter Maura. He is however just as happy in the gardens that he makes wherever he goes. He basically has no better photo than this one taken after finishing a route somewhere in the Julian Alps.
