Summary
This project contributes to strengthen the capacities of research institutions of the widening countries, in particular Sylinda aims at boosting the research and development capabilities of SOLARIS, the Polish Synchrotron facility, based on the experience brought by the partners’ consortium. The X-ray Absorption Spectroscopy (XAS) beamline of SOLARIS is to be upgraded with a high resolution spectrometer which will make it scientifically excellent and very attractive for academic and industrial users dealing with low atomic number elements studies. New industry cooperation avenues with the Pharmaceutical-, rubber-, agro-, (micro-) biological, chemical- and cosmetics-sectors will be consequently opened. The SOLARIS staff structure is to be reinforced with an Industrial Liaision Officer, a beamline scientist and a grant officer to better serve those industries as well as the academic community. That staff will be enrolled in a twinning and training programs at the premises of the experienced partners to master their specialties. Special emphasis on improving industry research project management, proposal preparation and administration skills will be placed. A summer school on science management for early stage researches and their participation on industrial research projects will broad their views about industry innovation and funding opportunities. A focused communication plan together with an industrial workshop will put SOLARIS in the European scene of those scientific and industrial areas. All those activities are the first step forward that will be sustained beyond the end of this project thanks to the networking and links established with the experienced partners that will open the doors to SOLARIS for future collaborations with other European and worldwide research institutions. No doubt this project aims to represent a quantum leap for SOLARIS in research and development terms.
