Abstract

NOAH deals with the education of early-stage researchers (ESRs) in a multidisciplinary chemical research program within the area of functional molecular containers, encapsulation processes and their applications with the possibility to end up with a PhD degree. The proposed training network aims to bring in a great variety of scientific attributes to 10 selected ESRs, ranging from the experimental organic and inorganic synthesis to computational chemistry. Photoand electro-chemistry, MS/gas-phase chemistry, X-ray diffraction and optical spectroscopy techniques will be also included in the scientific formation and development of the recruited ESRs. The trainees will also receive education in complementary and transferable skills through attendance to local and network-wide dedicated training seminars (e.g. dissemination, communication, organization, governance, ethics...). The training program includes the exposure of the ESRs to chemical research carried out in the non-academic sector or in a technological centre.

Obiettivi

1 - Synthesis of functional molecular containers based on different approaches and using a wide variety of building blocks.
2 - Decoration of molecular containers with pendant ionisable groups or biomimetic motifs.
3 - Equipping containers with switchable functionalities.
4 - Development of new tools and processes for the characterization of supramolecular host/guest assemblies.
5 - Identification and development of new applications of stimuli-responsive functional molecular containers.
