Der europäische Publikationsverbund Chemistry Europe zeichnet jedes Jahr engagierte Autoren, Gasteditoren und Gutachter als Fellows aus. Wir haben die Fellows Sonja Herres-Pawlis, Lutz Ackermann und Nuno Maulide gefragt, wie sie die Chemie in Europa einschätzen. Lutz Ackermann: „Keine Alternative“ Wenn einer Ihrer Absolventen einen Postdoc-Aufenthalt plant: Welches Land in Europa würde Sie ihm oder ihr empfehlen? Die Schweiz, UK und Universitäten in Frankreich oder Spanien. Wenn Sie 20 Jahre zurückblicken: Welches europäische Land hätte damals anstelle der USA Ihre Wahl sein können? Zu der Zeit gab es für mich keine wirkliche Alternative in E

The group of Hana Cahova in Prague has discovered a new group of 5‘-RNA caps in bacteria. They are using this newly acquired knowledge to seek a better understanding of the molecular processes connected to RNA, the naturally ubiquitous dinucleoside polyphosphates, and stress in bacteria and higher organisms. At present, there are more than 170 known modifications of RNA. We still do not understand what role many of them play. The least explored RNA modifications are 5’-RNA caps. A typical example is the m 7 Gp 3 Nm cap (cap I) found in eukaryotes. 1) This chemical structure is essential for eukaryotic translation and is recognised by translat

An ever-changing Europe. An old continent, but one that has been in a constant state of change throughout the centuries. Chemistry. Experiments, theory, science, research, abstraction, food, health, explosives, energy, innovation, materials, batteries, detergents, climate change, quality of water, environment, wine, cosmetics, sustainability, circular economy, renewable energy … The geopolitical situation across Europe has been important for European scientists for centuries, and chemists are no exception. Until recently, Europeans might have believed that their continent was a safe and peaceful place, with ample opportunities for creativity

Due to their excellent optoelectronic performance, and relatively easy processibility, halide perovskite semiconductors are used in highly efficient solar cells, LEDs, X-ray detectors, and more recently in photo(electro)chemistry. Eline M. Hutter aims to obtain stable, non-toxic perovskites for photoconversion applications. What intrigues me most about halide perovskites is their compositional tunability, 1,2) allowing to manipulate the properties depending on the desired application. This compositional tunability originates from the ionic nature of halide perovskites, allowing to build in any cation or anion as long as geometric and charge c
