The Van 't Hoff Institute for Molecular Sciences is one of eight research institutes of the Faculty of Science (FNWI) of the University of Amsterdam. Our mission is to push the boundaries of chemistry by performing internationally recognized scientific research that is curiosity driven as well as application driven. We strive at utilization and expansion of its knowledge and expertise by engaging in collaborative research efforts that address challenges in society and industry.The transition to a more sustainable society and the advancement of new technologies and associated new materials critically rely on breakthroughs in chemistry research. Addressing challenges related to energy, climate, health, food, and waste requires imagination from chemists to provide novel solutions. The molecular view of the HIMS scientists pervades all scientific disciplines, from life science and biology, through food science and agriculture, to nanoscience and physics.Chemistry research at our institute entails the synergistic combination and concerted expertise of four well-established research themes: * Analytical Chemistry;* Computational Chemistry; * Molecular Photonics; and * Synthesis and Catalysis.All themes have a strong base in fundamental research, providing a starting point for multidisciplinary projects. HIMS researchers join in computing, understanding, implementing, demonstrating and validating molecular solutions to the important problems facing society today.
