PROJECT OBJECTIVES:
DEFINITIONS:
•Dendrimers: new materials obtained with a highly controlled molecular structure in several
space orientations.
• Liquid Crystal (LC) Dendrimers: dendrimers that incorporate directional properties due to
mesophase formation.
• Liquid Crystal (LC) Dendrimers + Active Molecules: multifunctional anisotropic dendrimers
with wide variety of physical properties and new applications in two chosen lines:
Biomedicine and Advanced Molecular Materials.
• Objective 1: Training of 16 European PhD (ESR) and improving the skills of 9 post-docs (ER) in this
multidisciplinary field. In order to achieve this goal, all ESRs and ERs will carry out 5/6 (ESRs) or 3/4
(ERs) parts of their work period in their corresponding centres. In addition, they will spend a
secondment stay in, at least, one of the other complementary centres of the Network. (See training
part). Thus, it will be possible to combine for example: Preparation and physical characterisation,
modellisation and preparation, physical properties and modellisation, synthesis and
commercialisation (industry stages).
• Objective 2: Synthesis and characterisation of new functional LC dendrimers for Biomedical and
Science Materials applications.
• Objective 3: Study of the physical properties of the new materials synthesised.
The aim is to concentrate and accelerate the knowledge distributed in different countries in
Europe and reduce the existing gap between academically developed new materials and
their industrial applications.
The strategy is based on a multidisciplinary training, which will include modelling of new
materials, chemical synthesis and controlled chemical orientation, structural functional
studies, physical characterisation of structural properties, biological modelling, molecular
activity analyses, technology oriented samples and product escalation towards industry
processes. These training aspects will go parallel to a research career, complementary
formation and cooperation key-events.
• Objective 4: Survey of the potential applications of the compounds prepared in both Biomedicine
and Materials Science fields.

The general aim of the “Functional LC Dendrimers: Synthesis of New Materials, Resource
for New Applications” ITN is to plan, organise, implement and evaluate a joint PhD training
programme, looking for multifunctional materials with applications in two fundamental
subjects, i.e. Biomedicine and Advanced Materials Science.
