Welcome to the "Institut de Chimie de Strasbourg" website

The Institute of Chemistry of Strasbourg is a joint Research Laboratory (UMR 7177) under the double affiliation of the CNRS and the University of Strasbourg.

Located on the Campus de l'Esplanade in the heart of Strasbourg, the Institute employs around 160 people, including full researchers and professors, technical and administrative staff, doctoral students and post-doctoral fellows. The Institute is a multidisciplinary unit dedicated to all aspects of Molecular Chemistry, organised around 4 axes:

  • Organic Chemistry
  • Biological Chemistry
  • Physical and Theoretical Chemistry,
  • Organometallic Chemistry, Catalysis and Coordination Chemistry

Please feel free to visit the entire site and to contact us if you require any further information.

A word from the Director

The Institut de Chimie de Strasbourg, a patchwork unit, has never ceased to evolve, following the transformation of research activities for which it is renowned, and the advent of new ones on the international scene. The diversity of the unit is not limited to the identification of valuable supporting agencies, but is also reflected in its willingness to imagine the future by combining solid achievements with uncertain explorations, strengthening research developed by both women and men, and finally breaking down cultural and thematic barriers. By promoting the achievements of every one of us, we hope to contribute to the emergence of knowledge shared by all, within an ethical framework, and collectively mobilized in the quest for truth.
