Born in Hannover (Germany) in 1993, Pascal studied Chemistry in Jena and later returned to Hannover to complete his M.Sc. in Materials and Nanochemistry working on plasmonic nanocrystals. He stayed at the University of Hanover to pursue his PhD on assembly of nanocrystals into porous networks and the impact on their optical properties under supervision of Prof. Nadja C. Bigall. In 2022, he defended his thesis and joined the lab of Prof. Liberato Manna in the Italian Institute of Technology in Genoa as a postdoc developing syntheses of novel nanomaterials, such as perovskite nanoheterostructures and double perovskites. Joining the De Roo group in 2025 he is now investigating the synthesis of nitride nanocrystals
