RESEARCH PROFILE
In 1992, Erik Abbenhuis obtained his PhD-thesis at Utrecht University having worked in the group of Prof. dr. G. van Koten on "Intramolecular Coordination in Tantalum Alkylidene Chemistry". He continued with academic research as a postdoc, first in Strasbourg, then at the ETH-Zürich, following his appointment as a fellow of the Royal Dutch Academy of Arts and Sciences in 1994. He now has his own research group, under supervision of Prof. dr. R.A. van Santen in which emphasis is put on molecular aspects of heterogenous catalysis.
