Research in chemistry at Liverpool focuses on making a significant and sustained long-term impact to the health and wellbeing of society and the environment.

 

Our five research themes exemplify the breadth and depth of our research across the chemical sciences.

 

Materials Chemistry

 

Spanning organic, inorganic, polymeric, hybrid and nanostructured materials.

 

Chemistry of World Health

 

Developing new technologies to combat antimicrobial resistence and advance long-acting drug delivery systems.

 

Chemistry at the Interface

 

Surface and interfaces are where chemistry happens, from electrochemical reactions, catalysis, single molecular junctions to realisations of antimicrobial surfaces.

 

Synthesis and Sustainable Catalysis

 

Foundation of chemistry: focusing on finding new ways to make useful molecules sustainably.

 

Chemical Models, AI and Automation

 

Building models that rationalize the outcome of experiments, predict the outcome of future measurements and molecules lies at the heart of chemistry.
