Our Research

The Peltier group integrates organic, inorganic, and materials chemistry to tackle challenges in catalysis, energy, and sustainability. We develop synthetic methods to manipulate electronic structure, leading to novel molecules and designer materials. Our current focus is on creating high-capacity porous frameworks for gas storage and molecular separations, redox-active materials for stable redox flow batteries, and new earth abundant low-valent main-group species for sustainable catalytic transformations.

Our Values

We are committed to creating a welcoming and inclusive environment that aims to cultivate a passion for science. We believe that a successful research group thrives on a collaborative atmosphere, integrity, and mutual respect, fostering an environment where diverse perspectives are valued and encouraged. Work-life balance and mentorship are also central to our culture and we aim to ensure the well-being and growth for all members.
