Welcome

We study the dynamics of physical and chemical processes in molecular materials and in organized and biological systems. We use spectroscopic techniques (time-resolved fluorescence, single molecule detection, nuclear magnetic resonance) and quantum mechanical calculations to unravel the dynamics and the structure of the investigated systems.

Our group is organized into three research units specialized in specific techniques, working together and with external groups to achieve their goals.

Photophysics   Single Molecule   Biophysics

The objective of our investigation is to unravel the dynamics of molecular processes induced by light absorption, particularly proton-, electron- and energy-transfer processes.

 

Our main objective is to enhance our understanding of the fundamental parameters control-ling the dynamics of supra-molecular association and bio-molecular recognition processes at the level of single-molecules.

 

Our research focuses on understanding the mechanisms by which enzyme castalysts make posible a large number of chemical transformations of biomolecules.
