MCL is a research group in the Department of Chemical Engineering at UCL (University College London). Led by Dr. Ryan Wang, there are currently 15 members. 

Manifesto

MCL aims to apply fundamental principles of catalysis and materials design in applications that can benefit society and the environment. Current work can broadly be divided into solid state batteries and heterogeneous catalysis (including electrocatalysis).

Our Research

Our primary research target is the understanding of materials structure-activity relationship in catalysis and energy storage. This is supported by the three fundamental pillars of our research: Materials discovery, reaction engineering and operando spectroscopy. Find a detailed description of our current projects under Research.
