Welcome to Ec=m², the Research Training Group at the core of chemical sciences

RTG 3082 - Engineering Covalent Bonds in Molecules and Materials


Ec=m2 provides a structured and balanced support to the qualification and research of Scholars with an interest in the manipulation of covalent bonds. On the way to a PhD degree in Chemistry or related disciplines, they assume ownership of their research and training. Together, we will explore unprecedented covalent bonding and the tuning of its strength in molecules and materials in close interaction between groups with a synthetic (SYN), spectroscopic (SPEC), computational (COMP), and materials-oriented (MAT) focus.
