Summary
The Bo group develops and applies computational methods to address chemical reactivity problems, in catalyzed metal reactions in metal-free organocatalytic reactions, in supramolecular systems, and in polyoxymetallic chemistry. The group uses methods based on functional density theory (DFT) and molecular simulations as basic tools to elucidate reaction mechanisms and properties in solution. The group is actively participating in the promotion of open publication and in the development of advanced workflows through its ioChem-BD.org platform.
