What's UniSysCat all about?

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 ISE-Elsevier Prize for Experimental Electrochemistry 2021 goes to UniSysCat member Prof. Dr. Beatriz Roldán Cuenya for her outstanding achievements in the field.

Four UniSysCat groups and one Einstein visiting fellow applied in a proof of concept study a new experimental setup for the characterization of reaction intermediates in [NiFe] hydrogenase, which was chosen as hot paper.

A team featuring the UniSysCat groups of Walid Hetaba, Reinhard Schomäcker and Arne Thomas successfully synthesized multifunctional catalysts with a controllable distance between their active sites - a key goal of UniSysCat.

The Einstein Foundation's magazine "Albert No. 6 - Catalysis" introducing the work of several UniSysCat researchers has been awarded three publishing prices. Congratulations!

UniSysCat member Prof. Oestreich receives the WACKER silicone award in recognition of his pioneering work in the field of organic and organosilicon chemistry.

A research team around UniSysCat group leaders Prof. Matthias Driess and Prof. Robert Schlögl has found that direct seawater splitting for hydrogen production has substantial drawbacks compared to the conventional approach.

"The joint project CatLab shall revolutionize the world of catalysis." With these heavy words, CatLab, the new catalysis research center in Berlin, was inaugurated on June 21, 2021.

Prof. Dr. Holger Dobbek, vice chair of UniSyscat, has been elected as a member of the Berlin-Brandenburg Academy of Sciences and Humanities appreciating his scientific achievements and personality.

Mit dieser Frage beschäftigt sich UniSysCat Gruppenleiter Prof. Dr. Joachim Heberle als Ombudsman der DFG zusammen mit Dr. Hjördis Czesnick in ihrem gemeinsamen Artikel im Bunsen-Magazin.
