Evaluation Report Publications of the Academy of Finland 1/11

Research quality
The research at the unit is efficient and of excellent to outstanding quality, with a very 
high output of internationally recognised papers in a wide range of journals, from 
general science through general chemistry to more specialist journals.
A current direction in supramolecular research is the connection to the “nano” 
field. This has rendered the area internationally even more competitive, but the unit 
still manages to maintain its international visibility. A unique competence for the unit 
is attracting national and international collaborators, which is reflected in the quite 
high proportion of papers with co-authors affiliated outside the unit. Also, in the 
evaluation period, almost 20 international postdoctoral fellows have been active 
within the unit for 1–2 FTEs each.
