BIOMAT4CAST - PETRU PONI INSTITUTE OF MACROMOLECULAR CHEMISTRY MULTI-SCALE IN SILICO LABORATORY FOR COMPLEX AND SMART BIOMATERIALS

Project description

Speeding up computational chemistry in Romania

Computational chemistry is a branch of chemistry that employs computers to design or solve chemical problems by simulating chemical systems and phenomena. Advances in the field of computing have dramatically improved the accuracy of computational chemistry, which is the future of chemistry, as shown in the Chemicals Strategy for Sustainability. The EU-funded BioMat4CAST project aims to support the "Petru Poni" Institute of Macromolecular Chemistry (ICMPP) in Romania in attracting an outstanding researcher in the field of computational chemistry. The project will increase the research and development potential of ICMPP and improve its research visibility in this scientific domain. Importantly, it will help establish key collaboration with the World Association of Theoretical and Computational Chemists, facilitating sustainable cooperation and partnership.

Objective

"The strategic objective of the BioMat4CAST project is to implement a structural change within in the scientific management paradigm of “Petru Poni” Institute of Macromolecular Chemistry (ICMPP), Iasi, Romania, by setting up a competitive research group in the field of computational chemistry under the supervision of an outstanding researcher manager in the field of computational chemistry, Prof Aatto Laaksonen (Arrhenius Laboratory, Stockholm University, Sweden).
The objectives of the BioMat4CAST project addresses directly to the targets of the Horizon Europe program: ""to support research organisations to attract outstanding researcher and/or innovator in the chosen scientific domain thus to achieve excellence on a sustainable basis"". The BioMat4CAST project results matches the Destination 2: Attracting and Mobilising the Best Talents of the Horizon Europe program.
The BioMat4CAST project will raise the RTD standards of ICMPP – as the first NE Romanian Region research center having a critical mass enabling it to spread excellence in the specific field of computational chemistry able to link the Romanian computational school to the World Association of Theoretical and Computational Chemists through on-going cooperation, partnership and shearing of know-how/technical expertise.

The ambition of BioMat4CAST project is to become, after the project ends, an example of good practice and a model of knowledge sharing.
