What's UniSysCat all about?

Two recent interdisciplinary UniSysCat publications shed light on the importance of protonation on the functionality and reactivity of molecular compounds relevant in chemistry and biology.

Roderich Süßmuth has already been awarded in 2020 for his achievements in the field of peptide chemistry. The award was finally handed over at the annual meeting of the Max Bergmann Kreis.

We've been filmed! The Berlin University Alliance organized a film team to showcase the research of the Driess group on their Youtube channel "WissenAusBerlin".

UniSysCat member Prof. Markus Antonietti from Max Planck Institute of Colloids & Interfaces receives the prestigious award "Lombardia è Ricerca" for the development of artificial photosynthesis.

Omar M. Yaghi from UC Berkeley receives this year's Gerhard Ertl Lecture Award for his excellent pioneering research in the field of reticular chemistry. The award ceremony will be an online event on Friday, Dec 10, at 4 pm.

Bacteria in the gut - how drugs affect our microbiome: Lisa Maier from the Cluster of Excellence „Controlling Microbes to Fight Infections“ (CMFI) in Tübingen investigates the effects of drugs on our microbiome.

The award ceremony originally planned for 2020 had been rescheduled to November 3, 2021. Congratulations once again from UniSysCat!

UniSysCat researchers Shuang Li and Arne Thomas present highly active single-atom catalysts based on inexpensive and durable materials. Their approach is a great step towards more efficient electrochemical water splitting.

What an exciting new task for UniSysCat group leader Prof. Martin Oestreich! He recently joined the board of the new book series "Lives in Chemistry - Lebenswerke in der Chemie".

Nobel Laureate Prof. Gerhard Ertl celebrated his 85th birthday on October 10th. UniSysCat warmly congratulates the pioneer of surface chemistry and spiritus rector of our catalysis research.
