Pikramenou Group
We are a supramolecular photochemistry group based at the Chemistry department of the University of Birmingham. We run a broad range of research projects in the group based on photochemical procesess incorporating the use of nanoscale structures from Biomedical imaging to the development of supramolecular systems for light conversion devices.
