Welcome to the JTLab @Chonnam National University

From Padova (Unipd and CNR) to Gwangju (CNU) after few years in Dortmund (TU-Dortmund).

It was a pleasure to host prof. Bernd Schmidt from the institute of Organic Chemistry at HHU Düsseldorf.
Bernd had the honor to open this semester series of department seminars, giving a wonderfull talk.

We also had a fruitfull discussion on our recent research projects.

Dr. Ketan S. Mandrekar has been appointed Professor in the School of Chemical Sciences, Goa University starting 01 June 2026.
We are sad to say goodbye, but at the same time we are happy for this great achievement and we whish all the best for your future, surely succesfull, career.
