Two OLED related week-long summer schools scheduled for 2014 in Poland

The Polish Academy of Science is organizing two new OLED related summer schools in 2014. Those International Krutyn Summer Schools are high-level and highly intensive scientific events that include training in the form of lectures and scientific consulting sessions designed for PhD students and young researchers seeking to reinforce their knowledge and skills.

The first event (summer school #15) focuses on organic photonics and electronics, with profound emphasis on revolutionary TADF emitters as OLED materials replacing expensive platinum group metallacycles. The week long event (June 8 to June event is organized jointly by Japan's Kyushu University and Poland's Supramolecular Chemistry Network Foundation, and the Institute of Physical Chemistry of the Polish Academy of Sciences.

The second event (summer school #16) will focus on cutting-edge know-how on inorganic and organic aspects of advanced luminescent materials based on lanthanide compounds. This week long event (August 31 to September 6) is organized by Italy's CNR-IFN institute and Poland's Supramolecular Chemistry Network Foundation, and the Institute of Physical Chemistry of the Polish Academy of Sciences, Poland.

The summer schools are intended both for people already active in the related R&D fields, as well as for those new to those fields. A number of social events will be also proposed to relax after the heavily-scheduled program, including: discotheque, bonfire, boats on Krutynia River and guided or or individual out-door activities (kayaking, trekking, horse-riding, bike, Nordic walking, sailing, high-class ballooning and more).
