Director

About: Professor in physical chemistry, at the Department for Chemistry - Ångatröm, Uppsala university. Leif Hammarström leads research in the areas of Artificial Photosynthesis, Electron Transfer, Photochemistry and Ultrafast Laser Spectroscopy.

Chair of the board

About: Professor of Molecular biomimetics at the Department of Chemistry - Ångström, Uppsala university. The research in the Messinger group is focused on understanding the mechanism of water-oxidation in photosynthesis, and the development of artificial catalysts for water oxidation made from earth-abundant elements.

Vice Chair of the board

About: Associate professor in Molecular Biomimetics at the Department of Chemistry - Ångström, Uppsala university. My research interests include the biophysics and biochemistry of hydrogenases and photosynthetic membranes.

Founder

About: Professor emeritus in Molecular Biomimetics at the Department of Chemistry - Ångström, Uppsala university. His research on photosynthesis deals with the mechanism of the oxygen evolving complex in Photosystem II. In artificial photosynthesis he focuses on transition metal complexes for water oxidation. Stenbjörn Styring is the former chairman of CAP.

Department of Physics, Umeå univ.

About I am leading a research group that develops photonic and electronic devices based on organic materials. You can find more information on our web page: www.opeg-umu.se

Dept of Materials science & Engineering

About I am professor in Solid State Physics, directing a research group working on low dimensional materials for solar cells, water purification, and solar fuels.

Department Dept of Chemistry - Ångström

About Associate Professor in Microbial chemistry. My main interest is to design robust strains of cyanobacteria to be used in large-scale cultivation for biofuels production.

Department of Chemistry, KTH

About I am Professor in Molecular Electronics. My research interest is to challenge the so called “Holy Grail” of artificial photosynthesis, including molecular solar cells and solar fuels, with the aim to accelerate fundamental research to drive a conceptual transition from fossil fuels to solar energy systems.

Department of Physics and Astronomy

About I am professor in physics. We study small molecules, metal complexes and metalloproteins to discover basic principles that drive their transformations and that determine how they work.
