About ICIQ
ICIQ is a public research foundation dedicated to advancing chemistry to tackle some of the most pressing global challenges, including the climate emergency, the energy transition, and human health. Since 2014, ICIQ has been awarded three Severo Ochoa Excellence Accreditations, reinforcing its position as a leading centre in sustainable catalysis, renewable energy, and molecular medicine. Located in Tarragona, ICIQ brings together more than 300 professionals — over 260 of them directly involved in research — across 19 research groups working at the forefront of science through a combination of experimental and computational approaches. The institute has secured 28 grants from the European Research Council (ERC), and 11 of its group leaders are ICREA Professors, appointed by the Catalan Institution for Research and Advanced Studies. ICIQ has strong collaborations with academia and industry, fostering technology transfer, driving innovation, and supporting the development of scientific talent throughout all stages of the research career. These efforts are aligned with the European Commission’s Human Resources Strategy for Researchers (HRS4R). As a CERCA centre and a founding member of the Barcelona Institute of Science and Technology (BIST), ICIQ is committed to open science, sustainability, equal opportunities, and ensuring the social impact of its research.
