内容简介：
【简介】 The Catalysis Center will focus on the synthesis and characterization of new inorganic solids with surface texture and reactivity showing promise in heterogeneous catalysis.
The Center's mission is to provide a coalescing and learning experience for graduate students and post-doctoral fellows in diverse research groups dealing with the synthesis, characterization and use of catalytic solids with unique structure and function. In addition, the Center intends to provide a set of tools to increase the level of complexity and the research "nimbleness" that they can bring to bear on emerging problems in heterogeneous catalysis. The Center will provide modest seed funding, a broad and robust experimental and theoretical infrastructure, and the required logistical support to allow groups within the College to enter new areas in heterogeneous catalysis.
