Elite Researcher 2021: I find solutions for problems that we don t even have yet.
Chemist Gemma Solomon is an explorer in the world of molecules, where among billions of molecules, she looks for precisely those that can help us in, among other things, our green transition, by using power and heat better. Today, she receives the Ministry of Higher Education and Science s prestigious Elite Research Prize 2021 as one of Denmark s most skilled and talented researchers in her field.
In a microcosm consisting of a nearly infinite number of molecules, the vast majority of which remain unknown to humanity, 40-year-old chemistry professor Gemma C. Solomon moves about in her day-to-day life. Through her work at the University of Copenhagen s Nano-Science Center, Professor Solomon searches for new molecules that, with their unique properties, can help us humans solve some of what may be our biggest problems - both current ones, as well as those of the future.
