What's UniSysCat all about?

A team of four scientists, including UniSysCat group leader Peter Saalfrank from the University of Potsdam, was awarded an ERC Synergy Grant for their project IRASTRO, that is dedicated to interstellar astrochemical research.

The UniSysCat groups of spectroscopists Horch and Zebger discover a potential shortcut for catalytic hydrogen cleavage in a hydrogenase that is controlled by light - opening up new possibilities for manipulating this process.

The EC²/BIG-NSE doctoral program celebrated its 17th Jubilee and Alumni Meeting on October 28-29, 2024, welcoming around 40 alumni for insightful panel discussions.

We congratulate UniSysCat group leader Roldán Cuenya from FHI Berlin, on winning the “ACES – Margarita Salas” Award in Physics, Mathematics and Engineering, that honors her research on catalytic nanostructured materials.

A UniSysCat team has shown that it is possible to study proteins, such as a chloride pump, in living cells using time-resolved IR and UV/Vis spectroscopy.

The Berlin University Alliance showcases Berlin's exceptional research landscape, bringing the people behind the science closer. Under the motto “How can chemistry become more sustainable?” they present UniSysCat.

A team around UniSysCat group leader Adam Lange shows a new way how to measure the interaction of membrane proteins with different lipids and the influence of lipid exchange on the stability and activity of the protein.

Nobel laureate Prof. Szostak explores the origins of life in a special lecture at TU Berlin.

This year's Nobel prize in chemistry goes to David Baker, Demis Hassabis and John M. Jumper for their achievements in protein research. UniSysCat warmly congratulates!

An interdisciplinary UniSysCat team uses molecular imprinting to immobilize and exploit enzymes for heterogenous catalysis.
