The Molecular Materials Research Group (MMRG) is a multidisciplinary research group that takes advantage of the background of several Ph.D. members as well as the expertise of other researchers of Madeira Chemistry Research Centre/Centro de Química da Madeira (CQM), namely in the field of Computational, Organic and Analytical Chemistry.
Located in Madeira Island, and at Madeira University (Portugal), its main scientific activity is devoted to the preparation and characterization of potentially useful molecular materials with enhanced electronic and biomedical properties. The development of new materials based in dendrimers for gene delivery and for non linear optical applications it is one of their main goals.
