Lars Öhrström
Professor
Chemistry and Chemical Engineering
Chalmers University of Technology
Sweden
Biography
Professor Öhrström’s subject is Inorganic Chemistry, in particular the interactions of metal ions with other molecules. His main focus is the synthesis and understanding of Metal-Organic Frameworks, new materials with importance for “green” and sustainable chemical engineering and potential applications in catalysis and gas storage. Since 2007 he has been engaged in the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC). He is a member of the National Committee for Chemistry and a regular contributor to Chemistry World’s (Royal Society of Chemistry) popular science podcasts.
