So, my name is Lucas Viani, I'm brazilian.
I graduated in Physics at the University of Campinhas, in Brazil
then I moved to the University of São Paulo
and after that I moved to Belgium, where I got my PhD degree
and from there I moved to US and then Italy and finally, I'm here in Spain
where I will develop this project in a University.
Well, my research field is materials science
it's a multidisciplinary field
where a person with knowledge in Physics, Chemistry, Biology
Engineering... They can all work on that,
developing new materials to improve properties or create new devices
to improve the quality of life of people, in general.
My project here at the Conex program
is related to developing theoretical tools
to predict the certain accuracy properties of dynamic processes
among organic compounds.
And this is important today
because there are a new class of materials
that can deliver better devices,
such as displays consuming much less energy
with high contrast and equality in image
or new solar cells, or new types of transistors and so on.
So there are many applications for this field
specific for these materials, organics and conductors.
