Biography

Sjoerd Harder is a research professor in the Department of Chemistry and Pharmacy at Friedrich-Alexander-University Erlangen-Nuremberg, specializing in inorganic and organometallic chemistry. His research focuses on molecular materials and their applications in energy, particularly the development of novel heterogeneous catalysts for hydrogen storage and sustainable catalysis. Harder’s work involves creating fluoride-free coordinating anions for early main-group metal batteries and exploring low oxidation states of main-group metal complexes for the activation and conversion of strong bonds. He has published several significant papers, contributing to the understanding of magnesium complexes and their potential in catalysis and chemical reduction processes.
