Co-organisation of Progress in Organic and Macromolecular Compounds (MACRO 2025) Iași
The BioMat4CAST project team has been part of team for the 30th edition of the International Conference Progress in Organic and Macromolecular Compounds (MACRO Iași 2025) held between 23–26 September 2025 in Iași, organized by the “Petru Poni” Institute of Macromolecular Chemistry. This traditional scientific event is dedicated to polymer and organic chemists and physicists from academia, research institutes, and industry, serving as a dynamic platform for the dissemination of research results, exchange of ideas, and promotion of interdisciplinary collaborations. The scientific program of MACRO Iași 2025 cover a broad range of topics, including organic and polymer synthesis and physics, multifunctional polymeric architectures, advanced engineering of polymeric materials, and their applications in diverse fields. In addition, on 23 September 2025, the specialized workshop “Polysaccharide Based (Bio)Hybrid Nanostructures” have been organized, addressing recent progress in hybrid biomaterials. A highlight of the conference was the participation of distinguished invited speakers, who presented cutting-edge research at the frontier of organic and macromolecular science. Prof. Brigitte Voit (Leibniz Institute of Polymer Research, Dresden, Germany) discussed responsive polymeric nanocapsules and multi-compartments as cellular mimics, while Prof. Marius Andruh (C. D. Nenitzescu Institute of Organic and Supramolecular Chemistry of the Romanian Academy, Bucharest, Romania) presented results on magnetic and luminescent molecular materials constructed from lanthanides. Advances in polymer synthesis were addressed by Prof. Remzi Becer (University of Warwick, UK) in his lecture Precision in polymer synthesis: From sustainable polymers to bioactive glycopolymers. Prof. Cristian Silvestru (Babeş-Bolyai University, Cluj-Napoca, Romania) focused on the structure and reactivity of heavy organopnictogens, from CO₂ fixation to C–H bond activation, whereas Prof. Theoni Georgiou (Department of Materials, Imperial College London, UK) analyzed the effect of monomer sequence, composition and molar mass on the self-assembly and gelation of thermoresponsive copolymers. The session also included Prof. Michele Laus (University of Eastern Piedmont, Alessandria, Italy), who provided new insights into the “grafting to” mechanism, and Prof. Agnieszka Kowalczuk (Center of Polymer and Carbon Materials Sciences, Zabrze, Poland), who spoke about new pathways for functional nanomaterials, from linear to star-shaped polymers.
