Research Interests Energy: small molecule activation, chromophores for dye sensitized solar cells (DSSC), and catalytic oxidation/reduction of water.
Medicine: detecting & treating cancer, eliminating reactive oxygen & nitrogen species, new treatment options for diabetes, atherosclerosis and neurodegenerative diseases.
Coordination chemistry: stability of high- & reactivity of low-valent corrole-chelated metal complexes, controlling photophysical and chemical properties of metallocorroles.
Catalysis: Development/improvement of new/known catalytic processes with emphasis on full characterization of the catalytic cycle and the various reaction intermediates.
