Anastasiya Klestova, a
first-year master degree student at ITMO University in Russia under the
mentoring of
Dr Aleksandr Vinogradov
will shortly enter the Ph.D. program jointly mentored by
Mario Pagliaro, at
Italy's Research Council.
"My research interest is colloidal
chemistry. I would like to expand area of scientific interests. I like
the idea of collaboration between the two Laboratories and exchanging
experience", says Anastasiya
, currently
working at a Master's dissertation devoted to inkjet printing of planar
waveguides at the Solution Chemistry of Advanced Materials and
Technologies International (
SCAMT)
laboratory.
A leading material science laboratory of ITMO University based in St
Petersburg, the SCAMT Laboratory focuses on nanomaterials and
nanocomposites for optics, electronics and bioaplication by the means
of soft chemistry. All projects are oriented to
industrial implimentation, following
publication of the research
outcomes in high-impact journals.
Holding University status
since 1994 the St. Petersburg National Research University of
Information Technologies, Mechanics and Optics (
ITMO) is
ranked 3rd among Russian Universities. It currently hosts over
11,000
bachelor and master degree students, about
900 PhD students and
1,500
foreign students from over 70 countries.
Jointly headed by Professors
Vladimir Vinogradov, ITMO
University, and
David Avnir,
Hebrew University, the Laboratory has strong
international
collaboration with leading scientific groups in Canada, Israel,
Macedonia, Spain, Sweden and Swizerland.
Professor Vinogradov co-founded in 2014 with his brother Alexander Vinogradov
the International Laboratory Solution Chemistry of Advanced Materials and Technologies
, with the aim to establish in St. Petersburg a world-class laboratory with a highly
motivated team of young researchers with an average age of 25.
In one year only, by October 2015 the team had increased from 5
to 11 members with an average age of employees 24 years, 2 agreements
of international cooperation signed, and 10 articles and 6 patents
published, with two nanotechnologies developed therein (in the field of
fire fighting and protection of holographic production) undergoing
industrialization.
