Meet our researchers

Here you can meet some of our researchers within the Section of Chemistry at Uppsala University. Both as research portraits in the form of articles with interviews, and as popular science lectures in video form which we call "UppTalk Weekly".

UppTalk Weekly are digital lunch seminars organized by the Faculty of Science and Technology (TekNat) that are broadcasted live. Via the links below, you can listen to the seminars afterwards on Uppsala University's YouTube channel.
