A team of UniSysCat scientists from TU Berlin, Fritz-Haber-Institut and BasCat (UniCat BASF JointLab) developed a new catalyst for propane dehydrogenation based on cobalt nanoclusters.

In a recent study, a team of UniSysCat researchers investigated the extent to which their heterostructured electrocatalysts based on non-noble metals can actually compete with noble metals when operated for longer times.

Every year, all PhD students and supervisors of the doctoral program EC2/BIG-NSE meet in a nice Hotel outside of Berlin in order to present the progress of their research.

Scientists from BasCat (UniCat BASF JointLab) and the Fritz Haber Institute developed an accelerated discovery approach for the catalytic production of propylene that can compete with a procedure developed over decades.

UniSysCat member Markus Antonietti, director at the Max Planck Institute of Colloids and Interfaces, has been awarded by the Belgian Solvay Institutes, enabling him to give lectures about his research on a tour of Belgium.

UniSysCat scientist Benjamin Steininger co-curated the exhibition "Tank oder Teller", which deals with conflicts over the distribution of agricultural production. Festival and exhibition start on May 31 in Halle/Saale.
