From the Molecular Perspective to the Materials Transition
We are a collective of 6 different groups and we want to become a single team. All be it that we come from different directions we now aim to adapt a common way of working.
Without losing the scientific identity of the individual PIs, we would like to strengthen ourselves in the expertise areas explained below. We inspire each other by organising joint colloquia, sharing students at different levels, formulate joint research projects, education and stimulating excellence.
Mission
To make sustainable scientific impact through both fundamental and applied research, our education, and valorisation in Molecular Science and Engineering.
Research Goals
To use our molecular perspective to develop, design and synthesise molecules and materials to address (future) societal challenges and to gain a better fundamental understanding of the complex interplay of the constituent building blocks on different length scales.
