More productive and selective catalysts are the objective of the new Collaborative Research Center 1333 at the University of Stuttgart, which the German Research Foundation (DFG) approved in its senate session on 17th May 2018.
The DFG will provide funding for the next four years to enable scientists from catalysis, materials sciences, physics, simulation sciences as well as analytical chemistry to work closely together and study the role of confinement in molecular heterogeneous catalysis.
The Collaborative Research Center is based at the University of Stuttgart and has additional projects at the Max Planck Institute for Solid State Research and at the University of Paderborn.
