The activities of this research group are divided in Mass Spectrometry based proteomics and Mass spectrometry based structural biology.
/en/research/biomolecular-mass-spectrometry-and-proteomics - Biomorphodynamics of living river and coastal landscapes
Our aim is to understand and predict natural and human-induced dynamics of living fluvial and coastal landscapes.
/en/research/department-of-physical-geography/research/biomorphodynamics-of-living-river-and-coastal-landscapes - Computational geography and earth observation
Earth observation from satellites and other platforms (aircrafts, drones) is crucial for our understanding of System Earth and to monitor processes at the Earth surface.

At the Debye Institute for Nanomaterial(s) Science, chemistry and physics meet to study the properties of materials at the nanoscale, with a specific focus on three themes: catalysis, colloid science and nanophotonics.
/en/research/debye-institute-for-nanomaterials-science - Department of Physical Geography
Our research is directed to understanding the physical processes, patterns, and forms at the Earth's terrestrial surface.
/en/research/department-of-physical-geography - Evolution and morphodynamics of rivers, floodplains and deltas
Our Delta Evolution programme aims to develop a fundamental, data-driven understanding of the development of deltas and resulting subsurface architecture at time scales of millennia to centuries.

The GeoLab is the main laboratory facility of the Faculty of Geosciences. We have a wide range of lab facilities available for measuring bulk rock geochemistry, bulk rock stable isotopes (H, C, N, S), in situ stable and radiogenic isotopes (U,Pb-dating), in situ major and trace elements and crystallography.
/en/organisation/faculty-of-geosciences/research-facilities/geolab In Utrecht, we try to unravel the mechanisms behind infection and immunity.
- Inorganic Chemistry & Catalysis
The research in this group involves synthesis, characterization and performance of well-defined solid catalysts and related functional materials for gas storage and photochemical conversion processes.
/en/research/inorganic-chemistry-catalysis - Landscape functioning and natural hazards
Our group focuses on studying natural hazards processes: including landslides and soil erosion in mountainous areas in the Alps and the Himalayas, and wind erosion and droughts in semi-arid environments like the Mediterranean region and the Sahara. The results of our studies and the outcome of our models helps society to mitigate the negative impacts of hazards.
/en/research/department-of-physical-geography/research/landscape-functioning-and-natural-hazards - Membrane Biochemistry & Biophysics
This research group has a focus on the molecular mechanisms behind life processes that involve biological membranes. Their research will help to improve fundamental understanding of membrane function thereby leading to better insights in membrane-related diseases like diabetes, Alzheimers disease and Barth syndrome.
/en/research/membrane-biochemistry-and-biophysics - NMR
The research in this group aims at gaining fundamental insight into biological processes using solution and solid-state NMR spectroscopy.
/en/research/nmr - Organic Chemistry & Catalysis
This multi-disciplinary research group studies topics as diverse as synthetic and physical organic chemistry, homogeneous catalysis, and bioinorganic chemistry.
/en/research/organic-chemistry-catalysis - Paleoclimate & Biogeology
Palaeoecology studies past environmental dynamics by means of palaeo-reconstructions combined with experiments and observations to understand past and present behavior of biota in relation to humans, climate and natural competition.
/en/research/department-of-earth-sciences/paleoclimate-biogeology - Physical Colloid Chemistry
This research group is focused on the self-organisation of colloids and nanoparticles in liquid media.
/en/research/physical-colloid-chemistry This growing field converges biomedical research, innovative technology and patient care.
- Risk Assessment
The overall aim of the Risk聽Assessment of Toxic and聽Immuno-modulatory Agents (RATIA)聽program is to improve the scientific basis for assessment of risk to humans, animals, and ecosystems from exposure to potentially harmful agents in the environment, in occupational settings, through vaccination, and through the food chain.
