Debye Institute for Nanomaterials Science - Utrecht University

Announcement

Prof. Dr. Kathleen Stebe, representing the University of Pennsylvania, will hold the 2024 Debye Visiting Chair. She will be at the Debye Institute from June 10 to July 12.

To Visiting Chair 2024

At the Debye Institute for Nanomaterials Science for Sustainability, chemistry and physics meet to study the properties of materials at the nanoscale. We specifically focus on three themes: catalysis, colloids and nanophotonics.
The institute is named in honour of a true pioneer of the physical chemistry / chemical physics field: Dutch scientist and Nobel laureate Peter Debye (1884-1966).
