What's UniSysCat all about?

The Clara Immerwahr Award 2023 goes to Dr. Reshma Rao from Imperial College London for her outstanding research in the field of catalysis.

A team of UniSysCat researchers reviewed the development of technologies for the catalytic valorization of lignin, a natural plant material, to valuable chemicals in biorefineries.

A team of six UniSysCat groups discovered a promising recyclable catalyst for cross-couplings by combining a nickel catalyst and a photocatalyst in a single material.

For her dissertation, Dr. Anastasia Kraskov, member of the UniSysCat group of Prof. Peter Hildebrandt, is awarded with this year's Tiburtius-Preis.

The Einstein Professorship of chemist Stefan Hecht strengthens Berlin's material sciences: with his team, he researches new materials with improved properties.

The European Research Council (ERC) grants an international research team around UniSysCat group leader Robert Bittl almost nine million euros for the study of “Chirality and Spin Selectivity in Electron Transfer Processes".

UniSysCat is part of this year's Berlin Science week with three events! Join our panel discussion on energy security in Urania Berlin on Nov 9 or meet Prof. Heberle in Humboldt Labor or listen to the Science Slam on Nov 10.

The GreenCHEM project will be funded with up to 10 million euros from the BMBF to develop the Berlin region into a hotspot for chemical innovations. As a networking partner, UniSysCat is pleased to announce this success!

The idea for the CTC was developed by UniSysCat member Prof. Peter Seeberger and Dr. Matthew Plutschack from the MPICI.

Carolyn R. Bertozzi, Morten Meldal and K. Barry Sharpless receive this year's Nobel Prize in Chemistry for the development of click chemistry and bioorthogonal chemistry.
