In 2016, dr Damian Nieckarz defended his doctoral dissertation "Theoretical research on self-organization of molecules in adsorbed metal layers". Currently, he works as an adjunct in the Department of Theoretical Chemistry at Maria Curie-Skłodowska University in Lublin. So far he has taken part in several research projects like SONATA BIS 2, IDEAS PLUS, OPUS 9 and MINIATURE 2. Currently, as a manager, he is implementing the NCN SONATA 14 research grant. Dr Nieckarz's research topic is related to the application of lattice Monte Carlo computer simulations in the research of self-assembly processes of organic molecules in layers adsorbed on flat surfaces. His area of scientific interest includes in particular deterministic fractal structures and supramolecular tesselations. He is the author of several dozen scientific publications from "The Philadelphia List", one chapter in the book and more than 30 conference speeches.
