Curriculum Vitae

Karol Strutynski

Karol Strutynski was born in Bialystok, Poland. After participating in the national chemical Olympiad he was awarded direct entry into the Faculty of Chemistry at Nicolaus Copernicus University, Torun, Poland. There he joined the Department of Quantum Chemistry under the supervision of Prof. A.J. Sadlej. Karol received a Bachelor in chemistry with specialization in chemometrics and later, in 2009, he was awarded the MSc in chemistry. Karol won a PhD scholarship on 2009 FCT's national call (SFRH/BD/61894/2009) to join in the Department of Chemistry, Faculty of Sciences at University of Porto, Portugal under the supervision of Prof. José A.N.F. Gomes and Prof. Maria J.R.N. Ramos. From his thesis, "Van Der Waals Interactions in Graphitic Systems", he was granted a PhD in Sustainable Chemistry by University of Porto, in 2014. After his PhD Karol left academia and returned to Poland to work as a freelancer for the AREO company (www.areosc.pl). He worked on environmental impact reports of new and existing installations like municipal waste processing units or transhipment terminals. For this, he developed a new calculation scheme for Low-carbon Economy Plans for local municipal communes (Gmina Monki, Gmina Szczuczyn, Gmina Bielsk Podlaski, and Gmina Szypliszki) to meet the EU 2020 climate & energy package. In November 2016 Karol returned to academia, as a postdoctoral researcher at the Aveiro Institute of Materials (CICECO). His first postdoctoral position was funded by the FET-open European project 2D-INK, where he joined the theoretical group led by Dr Manuel Melle-Franco at the applied computer modeling group in CICECO. This project was targeted at developing soluble Covalent Organic Frameworks (COFs) for electronics printing. In 2019, his fellowship was extended for 1 extra year through the project: "In-silico design of new electronically active materials" to study COFs, nanoribbons, fullerenes, layered and pi-stacked materials. In 2020 with a 1 year contract Karol remained in Dr Melle-Franco group. In 2022 he was granted FCT grant for Assistant Researcher position with project entitled "Ab-initio Modeling of Novel Covalent Organic Frameworks for Electronics". During his postdoctoral stay at CICECO he co-supervise two PhD and one MSc students in theoretical and practical aspects of quantum chemistry. Karol's main topic of interest is the electronic properties of organic semiconducting materials with focus on COFs. Karol is senior researcher in several ongoing projects. Two supported by FCT: "Supported Covalent Organic Frameworks for the Monitoring of Pharmaceutical Pollutants (CHARM)" (PTDC/QUI-OUT/2095/2021) and "Redox-active Metal-Organic Frameworks as Electrode Materials for Lithium-Ion Batteries (RedoxMOFs)" (PTDC/QUI-ELT/2593/2021); project "Fabricating and Implementing Exotic Materials from Covalent Organic Frameworks (FantastiCOF)" (ref. 101046231) granted by European Union, Pathfinder program and FET-Open project "Engineered Conductive Proteins for Bioelectronics (Eprot)" (ref: 964593). He has published over 20 research articles, including high impact factor journals such as Nature (1x), Journal of the American Chemical Society (x2), Angewandte Chemie International Edition (x5), and Carbon (x2). Karol is the first author of 4 publications. A detailed list of Karol's activities is presented below. Apart from his focus on chemistry, Karol is interested in overall epistemology of science and mathematics. On a more personal note he enjoys sailing and playing classical guitar.
