Maybe you always wondered what the researchers of the NCCR Molecular Systems Engineering work on 👨‍🔬👩‍🔬. Here, the researchers explain their field of study in one minute⏱
Today, let’s listen to what Dr. Paola Andrea Forero Cortés is focusing her #research on. She is postdoctoral researcher in the group of the professors Housecroft and Constable at the University of Basel focusing on the rational ligand design of ligands for #energy utilisation processes. In her recent work, she shows the effective reduction of carbon dioxide to carbon monoxide in ionic liquids (doi.org/10.103.... She hopes that this type of research can be the first step towards fully #recyclable♻️ photocatalytic processes to utilise the abundant energy from the sun in an effective way.☀️
Have a good Thursday
