Key to the research objectives is further development of our own innovative software and techniques, now used by hundreds of researchers worldwide for the visualization and exploration of the structure and properties of molecular crystals. Through involvement of postdoctoral fellows and PhD students in an international collaborative research program involving a synergy between software development and visualization, and sophisticated modelling of the detailed nature of molecular crystals, the project contributes directly to producing researchers familiar with state-of-the-art theoretical and computational techniques, and well equipped to match the needs of one of the nation's articulated research priorities.
