Congratulations to Professor Nikos Hadjichristidis who has been awarded the Macro Group UK Medal for Outstanding Achievement for 2016.

Several KAUST representatives from the KAUST Catalysis Center (KCC), the Core Laboratories and the Solar & Photovoltaic Engineering Research Center (SPERC) will be attending the upcoming 249th ACS (American Chemical Society) National Meeting & Exposition, to be held in Denver, Colorado, from March 22-26, 2015.

Researchers at KCC reveal a low-impact synthetic strategy for producing supported small nickel nanoparticles – a powerful catalytic form of the metal.​​

KAUST Catalysis Center Research Conference fosters collaboration in important field​​.

Nikos Hadjichristidis has pioneered the synthesis of strikingly unusual polymers. Think of polymers that look like cheerleaders’ pom-poms, or star-shaped polymers with dissimilar arms, and you start to get the picture.​

"Catalysis will be instrumental in solving the most pressing environmental and energy-related issues that we face nowadays. At the KAUST Catalysis Center we want to be sitting in the driving seat of this new industrial revolution." Rethinking industry-scale catalytic processes could slash global energy consumption and even turn carbon dioxide into a valuable commodity.

Soft, stretchy, slimline and strong electronics could accelerate the arrival of artificial skin.
