Research Interests

We are between mechanistic and synthetic bioinorganic and coordination chemistry, paving the path for the control and modulation of redox processes in living systems, biomimetic catalysis and chemical energy conversion.

• Medicinal Redox Inorganic Chemistry (Bioinorganic Redox Signaling)
• (Bio)inorganic Reaction Mechanisms
• Proton-Coupled Electron Transfer (PCET) – A Blueprint for Efficient Catalysis and Chemical Energy Conversion
