The Gadzikwa Research Laboratory
Gadzikwa Lab = metal-organic framework materials + supramolecular chemistry + catalysis |
The members of this lab describe ourselves as molecular architects: we use the tools of Inorganic, Organic, and Materials Chemistry to construct functional materials using molecules as our building blocks. Like architects, we design the supramolecular structure, plan and oversee its construction via the self-assembly of molecular building blocks, and then finally, we decorate the interior of our construct so that it fulfills the purpose for which it was built. The ultimate purpose of the structures we build in our lab is to perform catalysis.
Researchers interested in materials synthesis and characterization, supramolecular chemistry, and/or catalysis would find a happy home here. Contact Tendai Gadzikwa if you would like to be part of our team.
