The Science Museum of London now exhibits a new display dedicated to artificial leaves as new forms of clean energy. This display –entitled Can sunlight make medicine?– focuses on the ability of photochemistry to use energy from light to perform unprecedented chemical transformations. The interactive screens feature interviews, explanations and quotes of different experts in the field, including Prof. Julio Lloret-Fillol, ICREA professor and ICIQ Group Leader.

If you happen to be in London, don’t miss the chance to visit this wonderful museum – entry is free. Nevertheless, if you don’t have the chance to travel, here are some pictures of the new set-up dedicated to artificial photosynthesis, one of ICIQ’s main research lines:
