Before his professorship he has been part of the CRC 1333 as a postdoc in project A03 and we are happy to see him emerge to an independent researcher now.

The Endo group is situated at the Institute of Polymer Chemistry at the University of Stuttgart and will receive start-up funding from the CRC 1333. He currently is an associated investigator within the CRC 1333 and we look forward to his contribution to the proposal for funding period three.

The Endo´s research group focus is on “Porous Crystalline Materials for Catalysis” and specializes in the fusion of MOF and COF chemistry to develop materials with superior properties, while targeting thermo-, photo- and electrocatalysis, which can contribute to addressing global energy and resource challenges.

We look forward to collaborating with the group and to exciting results on catalysis in MOF/COF hybrid materials!
