The FWF (Austrian Science Fund) just published an article on Miriam and our work on hydrothermal synthesis of organic materials, entitled “Hochleistungsmaterialien aus dem Druckkochtopf” (High-performance materials from the pressure cooker). Read the article here. [Read more]

Marianne attended the symposium “Global Sustainable Development in a Mediatized World” by the Austrian Academy of Sciences (ÖAW) and presented her poster “Chemical Synthesis in Hot Water – A Method for Sustainable Chemical Production?”. [Read more]

We welcome our new intern Simon who will be working with Patrick on the synthesis of novel heterocyclic monomers and their solid-state polymerization to polyheterocyclics. [Read more]

Hipassia and Musthafa attended the “School on Reticular Chemistry: description and design of framework materials” in Stockholm (Sweden). Both presented a poster and enjoyed great workshops and talks! [Read more]

We warmly welcome our new interns Livia and Florian who will work on hydrothermal synthesis with Hipassia and Marianne, respectively, during the next week. We wish you all the best with your syntheses! [Read more]

Hipassia and Tobia attended the 11th European NESY (neutron and synchrotron radiation) Winterschool in Altausee (Austria). Hipasssia gave a talk entitled “The Conundrum of Organic Dye-Silica Hybrids: How Can Neutrons and Synchrotron Radiation Techniques Assist Us?“, and Tobia presented his poster “Synthesis and Characterization of Crystalline Shape-Anisometric Polymer Particles as Model Systems for Self-Assembled Materials” for which he was awarded with the poster prize.

We attended this year’s Deutsche Zeolithtagung (German Zeolite Conference) in Dresden and contributed 3 posters (presented by Marianne, Musthafa, and Patrick, respectively) and a talk by Miriam. Marianne won the poster prize with her poster “The Hydrothermal Route to Porous Polyimide Networks”. Congratulations! [Read more]

Miriam attended this year’s Vienna Biocenter (VBC) recess that took place in Hernstein Castle Feb 22-23, and gave a talk entitles “Dyes for the Life Sciences”. [Read more]

Our team was represented by Patrick, Fabían, and Miriam at this year’s Scientific Recess of CeMM – the Research Center for Molecular Medicine of the Austrian Academy of Sciences. We enjoyed to fabulous days filled with stimulating discussions. [Read more]

Just accepted: “High performance functional composites by in-situ orientation of carbon nanofillers.” We are glad that we could contribute to this study lead by Prof. Helga C. Lichtenegger! [Read more]
