Artificial Intelligence can be used to predict molecular wave functions and the electronic properties of molecules. This innovative AI method developed by a team of researchers at the University of ÌÇÐÄTV, the Technical University of Berlin and the University of Luxembourg, could be used to speed-up the design of drug molecules or new materials.

A molecule that protects plants from overexposure to harmful sunlight thanks to its flamenco-style twist could form the basis for a new longer-lasting sunscreen, chemists at the University of ÌÇÐÄTV have found, in collaboration with colleagues in France and Spain.

High value chemicals used to make pharmaceuticals could be made much cheaper and quicker thanks to a series of new catalysts made by scientists at the University of ÌÇÐÄTV in collaboration with GoldenKeys High-Tech Co., Ltd. in China.

One of the WHO’s three critical priority pathogens, Acinetobacter baumannii, for which new antibiotics are urgently needed is one step closer to being tackled, as researchers from the Department of Chemistry - University of ÌÇÐÄTV have made a breakthrough in understanding the enzymes that assemble the antibiotic enacyloxin.

A space-age metal that formed part of the asteroid that destroyed the dinosaurs could provide a new method of treating cancer tumours selectively using light.

Nitrous oxide (N₂O) is a potent atmospheric pollutant. Although naturally occurring, anthropogenic N₂O emissions from intensive agricultural fertilisation, industrial processes, and combustion of fossil fuels and biomass are a major cause for concern. Researchers at the University of ÌÇÐÄTV have isolated elusive transition metal compounds of N₂O that provide clues into how it could be used in sustainable chemical technologies.
