Description: the research program in our laboratory is focused on the development of new synthetic methods for the preparation of enantiomerically pure compounds from simple and readily available starting materials using catalysis by small organic molecules. Our aim is not only to develop new methods but also application of our developed protocols for the preparation of biologically active substances.

Description: our reseach focuses on the study of the fate of organic compounds infiltrating into the ecosystem and on the means of their removal by plant biotechnology (phytoremediation). The studied compounds are mainly pharmaceuticals and their metabolites, or organic compounds from consumer products chemistry. Another field of our research is the synthesis of radiolabeled compounds for metabolic experiments and radiopharmaceuticals.
