The Instituto de Química Física de los Materiales, Medio Ambiente y Energía (INQUIMAE) is a chemistry research centre with double dependence shared among the Universidad de Buenos Aires (University of Buenos Aires, UBA) and Argentina's national research council CONICET. It is located at UBA's Faculty of Exact and Natural Sciences Pabellón II building.

Purpose[]

Promote basic and applied quality research in the areas or inorganic chemistry, materials, analytics and physical chemistry. Contributing thus to technological development, from its fundamental aspects up to their implementation, while focusing on local, national and regional relevance issues.[2]

History[]

Created in 1992 as an institute of the Universidad de Buenos Aires,[3] in 1995 it became also a CONICET institute.[2]

Its first director was Dr. Roberto Fernández Prini along with Dr. José Antonio Olabe as vicedirector. In May 2008 Dr. Ernesto J. Calvo became director after a public competition for the position.[2] Dr. Darío Estrin is the current director.[4]

In 2007 the seminaries classroom was named Roberto Fernández Prini to honor its founding director.[5]
