The Molecular Design & Innovation Laboratory (MINDlab) is dedicated to research in synthetic chemistry and functional materials, with a strong focus on innovation and interdisciplinary collaboration. As a part of the Center of Structural Chemistry (CQE) at Instituto Superior Técnico (IST), University of Lisbon (ULisbon), we explore the frontiers of molecular design to develop new compounds and materials with a diversity of applications.

MINDlab is led by Prof. Alex Kirillov and brings together a dynamic team of researchers and PhD/MSc students. Together, we combine expertise, creativity, and state-of-the-art methodologies to address fundamental challenges in chemistry and materials science.
