That Ragogna Group's primary focus is to explore the undiscovered chemistry landscape of the p-block elements, primarily from groups 15 and 16 of the periodic table. Main group elements play prominent roles in electronic materials, pharmaceuticals and new plastics and therefore, the benefits for the construction of new main group element compounds are two fold: (a) an increased understanding of the fundamentals of structure, bonding and reactivity; and (b) this knowledge can be used to assess potential applications for value-added products.***To make the above initiatives possible, the Ragogna Group trains students at all levels (undergraduate, MSc., PhD. and PDF) in the hope of inspiring new minds for the thoughtful pursuit of new directions in the chemical sciences. During the their time in the Group they will master laboratory and core competencies that are required by industry and government partners alike. Ultimately the trained HQP will represent the next generation of Canadian innovators.****Our proposal is a broad and imaginative one, bringing together ideas that push the frontiers of p-block chemistry, while working to bridge other chemical disciplines such as transition metal chemistry as well as polymer and surface science. Taken together, one can assemble a powerful "toolbox" for the construction of new bonding modalities, unprecedented ceramics and new polymers with functionalities that are new or superior to those already in existence.**

Ragogna集团的主要重点是探索未被发现的p块元素的化学景观，主要来自元素周期表的第15和16组。主族元素在电子材料、制药和新型塑料中发挥着重要作用，因此，构建新的主族元素化合物的好处有两个方面：(a)增加了对结构、键合和反应性基本原理的了解；(b)这些知识可用于评估增值产品的潜在应用。***为了使上述举措成为可能，拉古尼亚集团培训各个层次的学生（本科生，硕士和硕士）。,博士学位。（PDF），希望能启发新的思想，在化学科学的新方向上进行深思熟虑的追求。在集团工作期间，他们将掌握行业和政府合作伙伴所需的实验室和核心能力。最终，训练有素的HQP将代表加拿大下一代的创新者。****我们的建议是一个广泛而富有想象力的，汇集了推动p-block化学前沿的想法，同时努力连接其他化学学科，如过渡金属化学以及聚合物和表面科学。总之，人们可以组装一个强大的“工具箱”，用于构建新的键合模式，前所未有的陶瓷和具有新功能或优于现有功能的新聚合物
