UniSysCat (Unifying Systems in Catalysis) unites natural scientists with the aim to revolutionize catalysis research.
Info
UniSysCat stands for Unifying Systems in Catalysis. We are a Cluster of Excellence - a group of more than 250 researchers from the four universities of Berlin and Potsdam, the Charité and four cooperating research institutes in the Berlin and Potsdam area. More than 85 percent of all industrial products come into contact with a catalyst in the course of their production. Catalysis research is therefore not only one of the most important areas of research in chemistry and biology, but is also a key driver in "green chemistry" which focuses on sustainability and the conservation of resources. Here, UniSysCat's innovative research comes into play. UniSysCat is an interdisciplinary research network working jointly on coupled reactions in catalysis. We aim to understand, control and design reaction networks in chemical and biological catalysis. To master this challenge, our research groups are comprising molecular and structural biologists, biochemists and biophysicists, physical and theoretical chemists as well as physicists. The research consortium includes the Technische Universität Berlin as spokesperson institution, the Freie Universität Berlin, the Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin, the University of Potsdam, the Charité Universitätsmedizin Berlin, the Fritz Haber Institute of the Max Planck Society, the Max Planck Institute of Colloids and Interfaces in Potsdam, Helmholtz Center Berlin and the Leibniz Research Institute for Molecular Pharmacology in Berlin.

New book by #UniSysCat postdoc Benjamin Steininger and Alexander Klose: "The ’Atlas’ is many things in one: historical and geographical non-fiction, cultural theory essay, and picture book. We confront #petrochemistry with petromelancholy, #catalysis with catharsis, cosmos with cosmetics." Free download from punctumbooks.com In their new book, UniSysCat-Postdoc Benjamin Steininger and Alexander Klose present insight into technologies, geographies, politics, and cultures of this ambivalent epoche. It consists of forty-four short essays on the era of petroleum modernity. #OpenAccess #energie #energiewende #energy #energytransition #future #history #culturaltheory #culture #oil #petrol #erdöl #anthropocene https://lnkd.in/eDr9CHnz

🌿Research Highlight: With cryo-electron microscopy, a #UniSysCat team resolves the structure of photosystem II at highest resolution ever achieved and thus gains new insights into its function in #photosynthesis. Using solar light as an #energy source and catalysts based on earth-abundant elements, photosystem II can split water and store energy. It thus serves as a blueprint for emerging technologies for the sustainable production of fuels and chemicals. Researchers around the world are, therefore, trying to precisely retrace the reactions within the large molecule and learn from them. A team around the UniSysCat groups of Holger Dobbek, Petra Wendler and Athina Zouni visualize the structure of photosystem II at unprecedented resolution - thanks to cryo-electron microscopy...

Congratulations 👏 This year's Gerhard Ertl Lecture Award goes to Graham Hutchings. We're happy to share these great news and are already looking forward to the award ceremony in December! With the award, Prof. Dr. Graham Hutchings is honored for his outstanding achievements in the development of novel heterogeneous catalysts based on gold nanocrystals and gold palladium alloy catalysts. The award is named after Gerhard Ertl who won the Nobel prize in chemistry in 2007. We're proud to have him as our spiritus rector. Read also: https://lnkd.in/epN9XtZU
🌟 Celebrating Excellence in Catalysis: Prof. Dr. Graham Hutchings Receives the Gerhard Ertl Lecture Award 2024 🌟 We are thrilled to announce that this year's Gerhard Ertl Lecture Award, our institute's hallmark event, has been awarded to Prof. Dr. Graham Hutchings, a luminary in the field of chemistry and catalysis. 🏆🔬 At the Fritz Haber Institute of the Max Planck Society, we pride ourselves on fostering an environment where groundbreaking research and innovation are at the forefront. The Gerhard Ertl Lecture Award, named after the 2007 Nobel Laureate in Chemistry, embodies our commitment to celebrating and sharing exceptional achievements in catalysis. 🎓✨ Prof. Hutchings' pioneering work with gold nanocrystals and gold palladium alloy catalysts has set new standards for selective oxidation reactions, showcasing the kind of innovative spirit and dedication we cherish at our institute. His journey from a technical officer to Regius Professor of Chemistry at Cardiff University / Prifysgol Caerdydd, and his election as a Fellow of the The Royal Society, are testaments to his remarkable career and contributions to science. 🌍 The award, sponsored by BASF and supported by Berlin's esteemed universities (Technische Universität Berlin Freie Universität Berlin Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin) alongside our institute, not only honors outstanding contributions but also serves as a beacon for young researchers looking for an institution where their work can make a real impact. 🤝 We invite you to join us on December 10, 2024, as Prof. Hutchings delivers his lecture on "Catalysis using gold containing materials". 📆 Congratulations, Prof. Dr. Graham Hutchings! 🎉 https://lnkd.in/dPeqVaCD #FritzHaberInstitute #GerhardErtlLectureAward #Chemistry #Catalysis #Innovation #ResearchExcellence #GrahamHutchings

TOMORROW is #UniSysCat colloquium day: Don't miss the talk by Dr. Jan Schuller from Philipps-Universität Marburg about how #enzymes capture and utilize #greebhouse gases like #CO2 or methane.🦠 #catalysis #cryoEM ... Research in our laboratory is focused on unraveling the diverse and ingenious mechanisms that nature has evolved to capture and utilize greenhouse gases for biochemical processes. Using redox-controlled cryo-EM, we have uncovered common principles in lifestyles, highlighting the central role of enzymatically decorated nanowires, redox-induced conformational changes and the role metalloproteins play for the catalysis that enables them to sustain at the thermodynamic limit of life...
