Robert Schlögl (born 23 February 1954 in Munich) is a German chemist known for research in catalysis.
Schlögl studied chemistry at the University of Munich, where he received his bachelor's degree in 1979 and his doctorate in 1982.
After postdoctoral studies at University of Cambridge under Sir John Meurig Thomas, at University of Basel under Hans-Joachim Güntherodt, and at the Fritz Haber Institute under Gerhard Ertl, he completed his Habilitation in Chemistry at Technische Universität Berlin in 1989.
[1] Schlögl is a researcher in catalysis who has made crucial contributions to the elucidation of the structural dynamics and functionality of heterogeneous catalysts based on inorganic solids.
In April 2023, Schlögl was one of the 22 personal guests at the ceremony in which former Chancellor Angela Merkel was decorated with the Grand Cross of the Order of Merit for special achievement by President Frank-Walter Steinmeier at Schloss Bellevue in Berlin.
