Welcome to the ECCL
Extreme Conditions Chemistry Laboratory @ Jožef Stefan Institute
Our aim is to explore and understand chemistry at extreme conditions of pressure, temperature, and chemical reactivity.
The ECCL was established by the members of the Department of Inorganic Chemistry and Technology – K1 (Dr. Matic Lozinšek, Dr. Blaž Alič) and the Electronic Ceramics Department – K5 (Dr. Mirela Dragomir, Dr. Kristian Radan), who won the Director’s Fund project in 2019.
We are grateful for funding from the European Research Council - ERC, Marie Skłodowska-Curie Postdoctoral Fellowship, Marie Skłodowska-Curie Individual Fellowship, Jožef Stefan Institute, Slovenian Research and Innovation Agency - ARIS, the Royal Society of Chemistry (Researcher Mobility Grant), and from a Marie Curie International Outgoing Fellowship.
