The University of Groningen belongs to the Top-10 Materials Science Institutions in the world regarding impact. Materials research is key to modern society, as it enables both evolutionary and revolutionary transitions in technology. Researchers of the Advanced Materials program design modern materials that enable control at the atomic and molecular level, and that give access to unprecedented functionality. They build this functionality in increasingly complex architectures with unique combinations of materials. Some examples are domain- and interface-engineering of materials for electronic devices, the bottom-up design of dynamic (bio)hybrid systems and the synthesis of functional cellular systems. This approach leads to new generations of materials with properties often found in nature: energy efficient, highly responsive, adaptive and self-renewing materials.
