Welcome to Susan!

Greetings from Susan !!

My name is Susan Sen and I recently joined Kjemisk Institutt as a postdoctoral fellow to work with Prof. Dietzel on the design and development of functionalized metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) to explore their catalytic activity.

I received my Ph.D. degree from the Indian Institute of Technology Kanpur, India and then, moved to the Institute for Integrated Cell-Material Sciences (iCeMS), Kyoto University, Japan to work with pioneer MOFs scientist Prof. Susumu Kitagawa as a specially appointed research fellow. Before joining UiB, I was working at the Department of Applied Chemistry, Nagoya University, Japan.

My research is mainly focused on design and development of functionalized porous materials such as metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), covalent organic frameworks (COFs) and porous organic polymers (POPs) for their wider application in small molecule separations, energy storage and conversion, and heterogenous catalysis. Looking forward to meeting you all and exploring the chemistry in nanopores at UiB.

Please feel free to stop by and say hello to me in room 2002, Realfagbygget
