We are happy to welcome Dr. Asif Ansari as a new Postdoc in our group. He did his PhD in the working group of Prof. Dr Goutam Kumar Lahiri on ‘Electronic Structural Aspects of Ruthenium Complexes of Redox Non-innocent Ligands’ at the Indian Institute of Technology, Bombay. Afterwards, he continued as postdoctoral researcher first at the Georg August University in Göttingen, then at the Uppsala University. He will now focus on C-C bond activation reactions with phosphaalkynes and arsaalkynes. We are looking forward to an interesting and fruitful collaboration!
