The proposed Czech-Norwegian project aims to further develop the collaboration between Masaryk University and The Arctic University of Norway in the field of spectroscopic structural analysis of supramolecular systems (including those containing heavy elements). The planned mobility will extend expertise of involved students and researchers through lectures and practical courses, and facilitate meeting of both teams and planning follow-up projects.
The Norwegian team will provide practical courses and tutorials dealing with calculation of spectroscopic properties using software developed at the Centre for Theoretical and Computational Chemistry. The contribution of Czech team will include experimental spectroscopic techniques (mainly magnetic resonance), calibration studies, and comparative analysis to other available approaches. This project will generate a synergy between the experimental and theoretical chemists in developing novel structural approaches to characterize non-covalently bound assemblies.
