FET Open Grant for Prof. Helma Wennemers and her team

Prof. Helma Wennemers

An international consortium of researchers shall create a new type of chemical reactor for molecular synthesis that is inspired by living cells. The project is part of the Horizon 2020 Programme and is funded by a FET Open Grant, which supports research on novel ideas for future technologies. Prof. Helma Wennemers and her team are part of the FET Open Grant and join the project as one of the five participating research groups.

NCCR "Suchcat" examines new paths to sustainable chemistry

Javier Perez-Ramirez

Today, the Federal Council and the Swiss National Science Foundation unveiled six new National Centres of Competence in Research (NCCR). One of these new NCCRs, "Sustainable chemical processes through catalysis" (Suchcat), is led by Prof. Javier Pérez-​Ramírez and examines new paths to sustainable chemistry. The Suchcat network encompasses 27 research groups from ETH Zurich, EPFL and five additional universities.
