Research Networks (4)

Psi-K - Psi-k is a Europe-based, worldwide network of researchers working on the advancement of first-principles computational materials science. Its mission is to develop fundamental theory, algorithms, and computer codes in order to understand, predict, and design materials properties and functions. FB will be part of the new WG-B1 (15/05/2023 - )

EU-COST-Action COSY - This COST Action aims to provide a computationally and experimentally sound foundation for the fundamental understanding and control of confined molecular systems. The resulting outcome will be translated into useful knowledge forming the basis for applications. These range from creating a new generation of materials including bio-materials, with immediate transfer to industry, to disclosing the chemistry occurring in space. (27/09/2022 - )

Eu-cost action MP0903 - Nanoalloys as advanced materials: from structure to properties and applications (NANOALLOY) - Eletta UK representative per UK Manager delle short-term mission (06/05/2010 - )

Thomas Young centre - The Thomas Young Centre (TYC) is a dynamic and interdisciplinary alliance of London researchers which operates at the forefront of science to address the challenges of society and industry through the theory and simulation of materials, or materials modelling. We provide a framework through which we support current and future generations of researchers and foster collaborations within our membership, with theoreticians and experimentalists outside London, and with industry and government.
