Biography
Dr. Grażyna Stochel is the Professor of Chemistry in Jagillonian University. She has been to the positions of Humboldt Fellow at the Universities of Frankfurt/Main, Regensburg and Erlangen-Nürnberg; Visiting Researcher at the Universities of Ferrara, Padova, Barcelona, Orleans, Lund, and Coimbra; Head of the Coordination and Bioinorganic Physicochemistry group. Research activity is focused on: (i) mechanisms of inorganic and bioinorganic reactions, (ii) high pressure kinetic techniques, (iii) photochemistry and photophysicsof coordination compounds, (iv) photocatalysis, (v) metal compounds, small molecules and light in biology, environment and medicine, and (vi) nanochemistry and functional materials. Scientifi c expertise and modern equipment available in the group include spectro scopic, kinetic, photochemical, electrochemical, microscopic and some biochemical techniques. The group is involved in various international and national research projects in the Bio-Techno area. Interesting and up-to-date subjects, their applications with theoretical background, interdisciplinarity and internationalisation are the most important determinants for our research activity.
