Functional Macromolecules Group is coordinating visit of Prof. Richard Hoogenboom in Wrocław
Professor Richard Hoogenboom will come to Wrocław with a guest lecture as part of the Visiting Professors program – this is a series of visits of famous scientists, artists, business people from around the world, co-financed by the city through Scientiae Wratislavienses fund. Guests come to the capital of Lower Silesia at the invitation of the President of Wrocław, rectors of Wrocław universities and directors of scientific institutes, such as Łukasiewicz – PORT and the organization of visits are undertaken by universities and institutes. Visiting Professors promotes exchanging thoughts, ideas and experiences between scientists from Wrocław and foreign guests, thus enriching the Wrocław scientific community and giving it an international character.
At 10.00 a.m. professor Hoogenboom will start with the lecture on topic of smart materials based on poly(2-oxazoline)s, titled: Poly(2-oxazoline)s as potent(ial) biomaterials. Abstract
At 12.00 noon we invite you to a popular science open lecture dedicated to non-specialist audience. Professor Hoogenboom will explain that in this days polymers are something much more than plastic, title: Polymers – from plastics to smart materials. After the lecture we’ve planned a discussion. Abstract
From 2.00 p.m. we are inviting you to workshops on several subjects: Research commercialization – From fundamental research to spin-off company: how AVROXA was founded?, publishing – How to efficiently disseminate your research?, Chemistry: Polymer chemistry including chemistry of poly(2-oxazoline)s.
