Our research explores the chemistry of earth-abundant transition metals to deliver sustainable solutions for the circular economy. We focus on developing new molecular approaches relevant to the Circularity of Critical Materials, including redox mediators for next-generation batteries, strategies for the recovery and recycling of technology-critical metals, and design-for-recycling concepts such as switchable adhesives for low-waste manufacturing.

A complementary strand of our work is inspired by metalloenzymes, where multinuclear metal architectures provide new opportunities for activating and transforming small molecules (CO₂, N₂, H₂, etc.) important to sustainability. This bio-inorganic perspective supports emerging applications in areas such as diagnostics, therapeutic lead discovery, and environmentally benign chemical processes.

By integrating molecular design, electrochemistry, and sustainable materials chemistry, we aim to develop innovative solutions for a circular, resource-efficient 21st-century chemical industry.
