Dawid Zych is an associate professor, chemist, and educator, currently affiliated with the Faculty of Chemistry at the University of Opole. His scientific work focuses on the synthesis and characterisation of organic materials, particularly substituted pyrene and azapyrene derivatives, as well as terpyridine-based systems. His research aims to elucidate the relationship between molecular structure and the resulting optical, electrochemical, and thermal properties, with potential applications in materials science and molecular electronics. Professor Zych is also deeply engaged in the advancement of sustainable chemistry. Through his research projects and laboratory practices, he actively promotes environmentally conscious approaches to chemical synthesis and education, integrating green chemistry principles into both experimental design and academic discourse. Beyond the laboratory, he is passionate about science communication and education. He works to inspire curiosity about chemistry among pupils and students, combining scientific insight with historical context to dispel the myth of chemistry as an inaccessible or overly technical field.
