our research interests
Bio-inspired Catalysis

Bio-inspired Catalysis

One of our primary research goal is to invent and develop novel enantioselective catalysts that enable transformations with fundamental synthetic interests and broad utility.

Physical Organic Chemistry and Machine Learning

Physical Organic Chemistry and Machine Learning

We investigate the mechanism and underlying principles of molecular catalysis following physical organic chemistry strategies and approaches.

Molecular Catalysis for Function and Energy

Molecular Catalysis for Function and Energy

We try to expand the domain of organocatalysis to those uncharted territories, namely fringes of molecular catalysis, or molecular fringe catalysis following the concept of Kevin Kelly.
