Project objectives

The project’s research plan is to introduce new and develop advanced separation techniques belonging to the group of chromatographic and electrophoretic methods and methods for sample preparation prior to analysis. The STARSS project will improve international quality of research and its results through the long-term involvement of high-quality senior researchers, new employees and an excellent Key Foreign Researcher, who has extensive experience in managing scientific and research work in the area of analytical chemistry in the USA. The modernisation of infrastructure and the material and technical equipment of the new research team will facilitate the creation of knowledge with potential to produce excellent and innovative results. The international dimension will be strengthened by intensive scientific collaboration with selected leading research organizations abroad, especially in separation science. The project emphasises the principles of internationalisation, excellence, and support for the target group and – by extension – it will support the foundation of a specialised Centre of Excellence for separation science.
