Over 90 guests attended the opening ceremony of the Yusuf Hamied Laboratory for Chemical Synthesis & Catalysis on 12 September.
The new state-of-the-art research laboratory, which was made possible by the generous support of Dr Yusuf K Hamied, will enable Professor Matthew Gaunt and his research group to continue their ground breaking research into the invention of catalytic strategies for chemical synthesis.
Professor Gaunt welcomed the guests and recounted the history of the laboratory, which has witnessed the research of many eminent Cambridge professors over the years.
