Eye-Openers
Abstract
An initiative of KNCV, i.e. The Royal Netherlands Chemical Society, Eye-openers is an online stage for talented young (and not so young) scientists. Here they tell about their research, what’s it about, what inspires them and what they’re dreaming of. In clear language, visually stunning and in one minute only.

During IUPAC2019 in Paris, the cast met with a few special guests and planned for a series of Honorary editions.. One of them was Ben Feringa, and together they lost no time in making science fiction a reality! Another guest was Krzysztof Matyjaszewski who explained how by going to smaller and smaller dimensions, we can solve big problems. With Daniel Nocera, they imagined how to produce fuel and food from sunlight. And with Bert Meijer, we simply learned how easy it is to fall in love with molecules.
