BioLEC
Bio-inspired Light-Escalated Chemistry (BioLEC)
BioLEC is a DOE-funded Energy Frontier Research Center. Inspired by nature, BioLEC uses light harvesting and solar photochemistry to enable unprecedented chemical reactions that generate useful products from abundant feedstocks and waste. Established in 2018, BioLEC brings together expertise from eight universities and national labs across the United States.
BioLEC is headquartered at Princeton University and is comprised of 20 lead investigators, including organic chemists, spectroscopists, inorganic chemists, theoreticians, biochemists, and biphysicists.
