Research summary
AI-generated

Shiliang Tian's research sits in inorganic and materials chemistry, focusing on metal-containing compounds and materials such as metalloproteins, iron and copper complexes, macrocyclic metal complexes, and metal-organic frameworks. Work spans understanding how metals support electron transfer and catalytic reactions in both engineered proteins and synthetic catalysts, including asymmetric (enantioselective) catalysis for making chiral molecules, as well as structural characterization using techniques like X-ray crystallography and spectroscopy.
