Objective The introduction of new ionic moieties (cations and anions) into polymers is giving rise to a new family of functional polymers with particular properties and new applications which is provoking a RENAISSANCE of the chemistry and applications of classic polyelectrolytes. However, further developments and a better understanding of the properties and applications of innovative polyelectrolytes are still necessary to develop their actual and emerging applications. RENAISANCE will aim at excellence in developing high quality training opportunities through a synergistic collaborative research programme between industry and academia in the field of polymer science as applied to needs in Energy&Environment areas.RENAISSANCE ITN allows the assembly of a truly world class multidisciplinary and intersectoral research and training network, capable to locate Europe at the forefront of emerging polyelectrolyte research. The six academic partners of the network (POLYMAT, LCPO, MPI CI, BIORGEL, ULg and IMDEA) and the four industrial participants (KITOZYME, PG B, PG I and REPSOL) are internationally renowned for their research and training activities in the fields of competence that they represent. RENAISSANCE training program includes local training activities such as individual research projects, PhDs, master courses, supervision and mentoring, specific local courses, as well as network-wide activities such as secondments, local courses open to the network participants, four workshops,one summer schools and one conference. Both scientific training and complementary skills training will be taken into account. The network will offer training to 11 Early Stage Researchers a 1 Experienced Researchers. The ultimate goal will be to train ESRs as quality researchers, prepare them for positions in industry and academia suitable to become future leader scientists in the multidisciplinary emerging field of innovative polyelectrolytes Programme(s) FP7-PEOPLE - Specific programme "People" implementing the Seventh Framework Programme of the European Community for research, technological development and demonstration activities (2007 to 2013) Topic(s) FP7-PEOPLE-2011-ITN - Marie-Curie Action: "Initial Training Networks" Call for proposal FP7-PEOPLE-2011-ITN See other projects for this call Funding Scheme MC-ITN - Networks for Initial Training (ITN) Coordinator UNIVERSIDAD DEL PAIS VASCO/ EUSKAL HERRIKO UNIBERTSITATEA Address Barrio sarriena s n 48940 Leioa Spain See on map Region Noreste País Vasco Bizkaia Activity type Higher or Secondary Education Establishments Administrative Contact Charo Sánchez (Ms.) Links Contact the organisation Opens in new window Website Opens in new window EU contribution No data Participants (9) Sort alphabetically Sort by EU Contribution Expand all Collapse all CENTRE NATIONAL DE LA RECHERCHE SCIENTIFIQUE CNRS France EU contribution € 254 096,01 Address Rue michel ange 3 75794 Paris See on map Region Ile-de-France Ile-de-France Paris Activity type Research Organisations Administrative Contact Philippe Leconte (Ms.) Links Contact the organisation Opens in new window Website Opens in new window Other funding No data MAX-PLANCK-GESELLSCHAFT ZUR FORDERUNG DER WISSENSCHAFTEN EV Germany EU contribution € 456 253,00 Address Hofgartenstrasse 8 80539 Munchen See on map Region Bayern Oberbayern München, Kreisfreie Stadt Activity type Research Organisations Administrative Contact Andreas Stockhaus (Mr.) Links Contact the organisation Opens in new window Website Opens in new window Other funding No data Linköping University Sweden EU contribution € 470 445,00 Address Campus valla 581 83 Linköping See on map Activity type Higher or Secondary Education Establishments Administrative Contact Inger Johansson (Ms.) Links Contact the organisation Opens in new window Website Opens in new window Other funding No data UNIVERSITE DE LIEGE Belgium EU contribution € 461 605,00 Address Place du 20 aout 7 4000 Liege See on map Region Région wallonne Prov.
