Switching molecules on & off by light to control cellular dynamics
Diseases are usually restricted to a certain organ or tissue in the human body. However, medications are typically not only administered to the site of disease but to the entire body. This can damage healthy tissue and cause unwanted side effects. To overcome this problem photopharmacology aims to develop light-responsive molecules whose activity can be […]

Stone age techniques to produce innovative reagents
Grignard reagents are by far the most well-known organometallic compounds. Although more than hundred years old, these reagents are still today essential in organic synthesis and large scale industrial processes. These complexes are based on the metal magnesium but there is increasing interest in replacing magnesium for its heavier neighboring metal calcium. Magnesium may be […]

Efficient molecular photoswitches
Molecular photoswitches are only nanometers in size and can change their structure and properties when exposed to light. Molecular photoswitches are of great importance in many applied areas ranging from the development of light-controlled drugs, solar energy harnessing, to the creation of optically switchable surfaces, and the exploration of smart information storage. They allow the […]
