Konstantin Neyman is ICREA Professor at Dept. de Ciència de Materials i Química Física & Inst. de Química Teòrica i Computacional, Universitat de Barcelona, leading the group Reactivity of Nanostructures. He obtained PhD from Inorganic Chemistry Inst. in Novosibirsk and completed Habilitation (Venia Legendi) in Theoretical Chemistry at TU München. He published a book, 9 book chapters, ~200 journal articles and made 360+ conference and university presentation, including 140 invited lectures. His publications were cited 9700+ times in WoS, H = 55 and 12000 times in GoogleScholar, H = 62. Dr. Neyman is a corresponding/senior author of ~30 articles in such premier journals as ACS Nano, ACS Catal., Angew. Chem. (4), Appl. Catal. B (3), Chem. Commun. (2), Chem. Eur. J. (3), Chem. Sci., Chem. Soc. Rev., J. Am. Chem. Soc. (4), J. Mater. Chem./A (3), Nanoscale (2), Nature Mater. (3). See full CV and publication list of Dr. Neyman at www.icrea.cat/Web/ScientificStaff/Konstantin-M-Neyman-292; Researcher ID F-4055-2011. Before joining ICREA, Dr. Neyman held senior research positions in Germany at TU München, Ludwig-Maximilian Universität München and Fritz-Haber-Institut (Berlin). He contributed to funding of 40+ research projects. Recipient of recent Chalmers Jubilee Professor and Uppsala University Visiting Professor awards. The research group of Dr. Neyman deals with computational modelling of advanced, in particular, nanostructured inorganic materials important for catalysis, hydrogen technology, energy storage and related applications. A general aim is to understand at the atomic level by carrying out large-scale quantum mechanical computer calculations how the structure and composition of a material are related with its function in a given chemical process. It is often hardly possible to obtain this information experimentally. Yet, its absence drastically hinders knowledge-driven creation of materials with desired improved properties.

Venue, Travel and Accommodation
Venue
Barcelona
Barcelona is the capital and largest city of Catalonia and is Spain's second largest city, with a population of over one and half million people.
Located on the northeastern Mediterranean coast of Spain, this city has a rich and diverse history, with its roots dating back to Roman times. The fruitful medieval period established Barcelona's position as the economic and political centre of the Western Mediterranean. The city's Gothic Quarter bears witness to the splendour enjoyed by the city from the 13th to the 15th centuries.
The 20th century ushered in widespread urban renewal throughout Barcelona city, culminating in its landmark Eixample district, which showcases some of Barcelona's most distinctive Catalan art-nouveau, or modernista, buildings. The Catalan Antoni Gaudí, one of the most eminent architects, designed buildings such as La Pedrera, the Casa Batlló and the Sagrada Família church, which have become world-famous landmarks.
In 1992, Barcelona gained international recognition by hosting the Olympic games which brought about a massive upturn in its tourism industry. For visitors, this has translated into the very modern, yet incredibly old city you see now in the 21st century, where new elements work to both preserve and celebrate both the city’s heritage and origins.
Barcelona is plenty of outdoor markets, restaurants, shops, museums, and churches. The city is also very walkable, with an extensive and reliable Metro system for more far-flung destinations.
