Congratulations to Dr. Rayder who defends his thesis “Bioinspired Host-Guest MOF Composites for Fuel Production”! This is the first virtual thesis defence in the history of the group!
Tom’s research involves the encapsulation of homogeneous transition metal catalysts in MOFs through aperture-opening processes. Most recently, he is applying this approach to optimization of the cascade reduction of CO2 to methanol as an alternative fuel source.
