Transparent about where the funding comes from.

Our research is supported by the European Union, the African Union and the African Academy of Sciences. The flagship project below is publicly auditable; future grants will appear here as they're awarded.

Quantum Simulations and Energy Materials

A multi-year programme studying quantum transport across molecular junctions and nano-structured materials — from charge to heat transport, excited states and dynamics. The work bridges electronic-structure theory with materials discovery for energy applications, with the goal of efficient nano-refrigerators and thermoelectric devices that recover wasted heat at the nanoscale.
