“Technologies that will power civilization”

Prof. Avner FriedmanDistinguished University Professor at The Ohio State University 

National Academy of Sciences (USA)

Abstract : By “sustainability” we mean the need to meet the needs of the present and future generations, while preserving the planet’s life support system. To meet this challenge we must develop efficient ways to produce renewable energy, ensure protection against diseases, and maintain healthy environmental standards.In this talk I will give some examples where the mathematical sciences can contribute to the development of technologies that address the above challenges. Examples will include an approach to exploit solar energy using voltaic cells, models which would increase understanding how to protect against diseases, and ways and means to address pollution in ground water and air.

“Nano: Chance or Curse of Current Century?”

Prof. Jerzy Leszczynski President’s Distinguished Fellow at Jackson State University, Jackson,

MS, USA. US Presidential Mentor award, 2007. Marie Curie-Sklodowska medal, 2007.

Presidential Distinguished Scholar Award, Jackson State University, 2001. White House Millennium HBCU Award for Science and Technology, 2001.

Abstract :Nanotechnology has emerged at the forefront of science and technology developments. This is due to the fact that nanoparticles (NPs) have a wide range of applications in different aspects of human life.  The list of consumer goods developed in the nano-field is constantly increasing. Approximately 1015 different products containing nanomaterials  were marketed in 2009. However, there is also the other, disturbing side, of fast advances in nanotechnology. Therefore, it is a crucial role of scientists to uncover potential side effects of nanoparticles, inform the public, and provide solutions to the possible problems. The truth is that due to unique properties of NPs they could be harmful to the environment and humans.  The pharmaco-kinetic studies show that different types of nanoparticles can be found in various cells such as mitochondria, lipid vesicles, fibroblasts, nucleus, or macrophages.  There is a necessity to develop alternative methods, easy to use, fast, and efficient, to

the present techniques that are used to study different properties of nanomaterials, including their toxicity. Computational chemistry provides diverse tools that could evaluate molecular interactions among various species including nanoparticles and models of different biological species, and predict their properties and biological activities. The talk will be devoted to discussion of new challenges that nanomaterials create for the society. A part of the lecture will cover development of novel computational approaches, appropriate for evaluation of properties and activities of nanostructures. The obtained results could be used as a first step in developing mechanisms that explain complex interactions of nanomaterials with biomolecules.

George A. and Judith A. Olah Nobel Laureate Chair in Hydrocarbon Chemistry

Director, Loker Hydrocarbon Research InstituteUniversity of Southern California

Los Angeles, CA 90089-1661, USA

Abstract :Methanol is much preferable to hydrogen for energy storage and transportation. It is also an excellent fuel for heat engines and fuel cells and a convenient raw material for synthetic hydrocarbons and their varied products. Chemical recycling of excess carbon dioxide formed from human activities, natural and industrial sources, or even from the air to methanol via capture followed by reductive conversion with hydrogen is possible. Any available energy source (preferably alternative energies such as solar, atomic, etc.) can provide the needed energy, primarily generating hydrogen. Direct electrochemical reduction of CO2 is also possible. Methanol, presently produced from fossil fuel based syngas (mixture of CO and H2), can also be made by direct oxidative conversion of natural gas or other methane sources. Even biomass can be converted to methanol through syngas. The Methanol Economy concept is expected to solve the energy & material problems in the long run and at the same time address the issue of global warming.

  “Nano: Solutions for Securing Supplies of Raw Materials”

Dr. Eric GaffetSenior Scientist CNRS

Deputy Director, Institut Jean LamourUMR 7198 CNRS – Université de Lorraine, France

Abstract :The creation of new materials designed for sustainable development, for new technologies and for new sources of energy, is largely dependant on rare chemical elements, which were until now produced in small amounts. The question of the availability and/or substitution of those materials is then critical for the future.Several ways of designing new materials are currently in development. The first is to make new products that use the same metal but in smaller amounts, such as new catalysts that contain less platinum. A second option is to replace a rare or risky metal by another more common or less risky metal. For example, considerable efforts are being made to develop new magnets to replace neodymium based ones (neodymium is one of the Rare Earth Elements). A third way to make new products is to replace metal-based materials with carbon-based or bio sourced materials. Amongst new materials being considered, the talk will be devoted to discussion on one of the most promising family, i.e. the so-called nano-structured materials, which display outstanding properties, which are still not entirely understood. The full lifecycle assessment taking into account the nanorisks and the new approach so –called “safer by design/process” will be also addressed

The talk is dedicated to people that are not specialists in Scientific Computing, and are not much expert of applications of Mathematics either. The basic steps in Scientific Computing (Modelling, Discretization, Computation, Comparison with experiments, and possibly cycling on the above) will be reviewed, in a very non-specialized way. Some hints on possible pitfalls will be given, on simple toy-problems, together with some general idea on physical stability, numerical  stability, and excess of numerical stability.

Abstract: “Nanomedicine and Transport Oncophysics”Nanotechnologies are of great interest in the context of the drive toward individualized medicine, and may prove to be the necessary catalyst for its large-scale implementation. In this talk I will present nanoporous-silicon-based approaches for the individualization of medical intervention: multistage vectors for the preferential localization of therapeutic agents; therapeutic monitoring nanotextured chips for the proteomic and peptidomic content profiling of biological samples; nanochannel delivery systems for intelligent time-release from implants, and bionanoscaffolds for post-traumatic osteoregeneration.While novel nanoplatforms engender direct clinical applications, at the same time they afford the formulation of novel frameworks and hypotheses for the basic understanding of pathological processes. In particular, multistage particulates are the probes that afford the exploration of a new perspective of cancer, that is, that the unifying aspect of the canonical ‘hallmarks of cancers’ all relate to dys-regulation of mass transport at scales including the molecular, cellular, microenvironmental, and systemic. These considerations are the starting point for “Transport OncoPhysics”.

In recognition of his pioneering contributions to nanomedicine, and in particular as the founder of the field of nanofluidics, with applications to controlled-release drug delivery, immunoisolated cell transplants, and molecular sieves. In recognition of the invention and development of multi-stage vectors for the preferential delivery of therapeutic moieties to cancer tumors from systemic injections, especially in the context of metastatic disease. In recognition of his foundational contribution in the establishment of the field of transport oncophysics, which opened an entirely novel scientific perspective on the nature of cancer, and generated new hope for success in its treatment.

“Thin Films as model materials in catalysis: A perspective at the atomic level”

12

Our understanding of catalysis, and in particular heterogeneous catalysis, is to a large extend based on the investigation of model systems. The enormous success of metal single crystal model surface chemistry, pioneered by physical chemists, is an outstanding example. Increasing the complexity of the models towards supported nanoparticles, resembling a real disperse metal catalyst, allows one to catch in the model some of the important aspects that cannot be covered by single crystals alone. One of the more important aspects is the support particle interface. We have developed strategies to prepare such model systems based on single crystalline oxide films which are used as supports for metal and oxide nanoparticles, which may be studied at the atomic level using the tools developed in surface science. However, those oxide films may also serve as reaction partners themselves, as they are models for SMSI states of metal catalyst. Using such model systems we are able to study a number of fundamental questions of potential interest, such as reactivity as a function of particle size and structure, influence of support modification, as well as of the environment, i.e. ultravacuum or ambient conditions, onto reactivity. We have investigated a particular class of thin films that are based on silicon oxides. Very well ordered films of different stoichiometries have been prepared at imaged with atomic resolution, including ordered and disordered (glassy) systems which, for the first time, allow us to get atomic insight into the crystal-glass transition. Those silica films can also be chemically modified by substituting Si by Al thus creating alumo-slicates which have properties closely resembling zeolites. This opens an avenue for surface science to contribute to our understanding of this important class of materials.The presentation will cover a number of case studies and addresses the question: What has been learned for catalysis?!

Blaise Pascal Medals 2012 in Materials Science

In recognition of his pioneering work in the preparation and characterization of new materials and systems relevant in heterogeneous catalysis, Professor Hans-Joachim Freund, director of the Fritz-Haber-Institut of the Max-Planck-Gesellschaft, Berlin, Germany, will receive the Blaise Pascal Medal 2012 in materials science. Freund will receive the award for his outstanding work on understanding the molecular basis of heterogeneous catalysis. His research focuses on the physics and chemistry of solid surfaces, in particular, the controlled preparation of metal oxide films, their characterization and application in ultrahigh vacuum and under ambient conditions. He has also substantially contributed to the development of model systems for heterogeneous catalysis, nanostructures, and supported clusters. Freund has been the director of the Fritz Haber Institute since 1996. His world wide reputation is based on more than 500 scientific articles that he authored or co-authored in the very best journals. His scientific achievements have been largely recognized by an impressive list of awards from many countries. In addition, his role as a scientific leader is marked by his contribution to the foundation of the European Research Council and his board membership of several prestigious academies (Academia Europaea, Berlin-Brandenburgische Academy of Sciences, Academia Brasileira de Ciencias, German National Academy of Sciences Leopoldina). Abstract:

Professor Charles Joachain

• Chairman of the European Science Foundation research programme «Super-intense laser-matter interactions»• Professeur ordinaire émérite, Université Libre de Bruxelles• Professeur honoraire, Université Catholique de Louvain, Louvain-la-Neuve

The development of lasers capable of producing high-intensity pulses has opened a new area in the study of light-matter interactions. The corresponding laser fields are strong enough to compete with the Coulomb forces in controlling the dynamics of atomic systems, and give rise to new phenomena. In the first part of this lecture, a survey will be given of the basic properties found in the study of multiphoton processes. These include the multiphoton ionization of atoms, the emission by atomic systems of high-order harmonics of the driving laser field, the generation of ultra-short laser pulses in the attosecond range and their use in attophysics, and laser-assisted electron-atom collisions. In the second part of this talk, the main non-perturbative methods which have been used to perform theoretical calculations of multiphoton processes will be reviewed.

Abstract: “Atoms in intense laser fields”

Blaise Pascal Medals 2012 in Physics

In recognition of his outstanding achievements in the theory of quantum collision and high-intensity laser-atom interactions. In the first case, he has developed very successful methods to analyse electron-atom and positron-atom cross sections and performed pioneering calculations on double ionisation by electrons and photons, pointing out the importance of electron correlation effects.  In the second case, he was one of the proposers of the R-matrix-Floquet theory for multi-photon processes in complex atoms, including non-dipole and relativistic effects for super high-laser intensity. This theoretical research has had a broad impact among experimentalists.

Blaise Pascal Medals 2012 in Medicine

In recognition of his major contributions to neuroscience and his pioneering work on coma and disorders of consciousness. Professor Steven Laureys was able to take a field that was somewhat ‘dormant’ – the neurology of coma, vegetative, minimally conscious, locked-in and related states – and make it into one of the most vibrant areas of scientific research. He is presently one of the most outstanding neurologists in Europe. The Coma Science Group he created is unique in the world and is serving as a model for how to conjoin clinical care with cutting-edge research. Thanks to the clarity of his thinking and ability to communicate, he has reached out to a large audience of both scientists and clinicians. He has grown a cohort of talented collaborators, such that the Liège group is now a recognized scientific powerhouse, recruiting many distinguished investigators from different countries and fields to develop collaborative projects that have proven extremely successful.The Coma Science Group’s neuroimaging studies of brain function in normal waking, anesthesia, coma and severe brain injury have shown that human consciousness is an emergent property of collective critical neural network dynamics, involving a frontoparietal global workspace. Within this identified network, external (sensory or perceptual) awareness depends on lateral prefrontal and posterior parietal cortical connectivity while internal (self) awareness depends on midline precuneal and mesiofrontal information/integration. Of clinical and ethical importance, this knowledge permits to improve the diagnosis, prognosis and treatment of patients with disorders of consciousness. Current technology also permits to show command- specific changes in EEG or fMRI signals providing motor-independent evidence of conscious thoughts, improving the clinical care and quality of life of patients with functional “locked-in” orminimally conscious states.

Blaise Pascal Medals 2012 in Chemistry Professor Jean-Pierre Sauvage

• Professor and CNRS Research Director, Université de Strasbourg• Directeur du laboratoire de chimie organo-minérale, Institut de Science et d’Ingénierie Supramolécualires (ISIS) de l’Université de Strasbourg

Molecules consisting of interlocking rings systems or rings threaded by organic fragments (Catenanes and Rotaxanes) have attracted much interest in molecular chemistry, first as pure synthetic challenges and, more recently, as components of functional materials. The synthesis of such compounds relies on templates (transition metals or organic assemblies). In recent years, highly sophisticated compounds have been designed and elaborated such as two-dimensional interlocking arrays. The transition metal template plays an essential role : several metal centres are combined with several organic fragments so as to afford multicomponent assemblies, the various organic components being threaded or interlocking with one another. Separately, the field of artificial molecular machines has experienced a spectacular development. These compounds are important in relation to molecular devices at the nanometric level or as mimics of biological motors. A few remarkable examples are based on multi-rotaxanes acting as "molecular muscles" or "switchable receptors". The incorporation of such dynamic systems in crystalline assemblies has recently achieved, paving the way to the elaboration of molecular machines in the solid state.

15

In recognition of his outstanding and pioneering work in the field of interlocked molecules, particularly for the development of very efficient strategies based on the three-dimensional template effect around metal ions to synthesize in large quantities topologically fascinating molecules like rotaxanes, catenanes and knots.Most of such interlocked species were then investigated from the viewpoint of molecular machines. For example, he has synthesized a rotaxane dimer in which two filaments glide along one another in a controlled fashion, a behavior reminiscent that of natural muscles, a tetra- rotaxane which behaves as a switchable receptor, and a number of so-called pirouetting machines in which a ring of a catenane glides within the other ring.In his research, Professor Jean-Pierre Sauvage has always exhibited a touch of originality, combining beauty and utility, as only outstanding scientists can do. He is one of the best known and most influential chemists of the world. His worldwide reputation is based on more than 500 scientific articles which were cited about 24.000 times. Moreover, his scientific achievements have been largely recognized by an impressive list of awards from many countries.Abstract: "From Chemical Topology to Molecular Machines"
