Discover the program of the Spring School
1. Structure and thermodynamics of soft interfaces (emphasis on bio- and liquid interfaces)
- Biointerfaces and biomembranes assembly and energetics
- Molecules folding
- self-assembly
- Mechanical deformation of cells
- Molecular arrangement at liquid interfaces
2. Mechanics of soft matter: viscoelasticity, diffusion and deformation across scales
Main forces across scales: the structure of soft matter
- Deformation: viscous vs elastic vs viscoelastic (molecular level and macroscopic)
- Timescale of deformation and rearrangement in soft matter
- Basics of diffusion (Einstein, biaised diffusion etc)
3. Basics of Electrochemical measurements at the nanoscale
- Introduction to electrochemical processes
- Nanoscale vs macroscale electrochemistry
- Experimental approaches
4. Microscopy techniques: a practical overview of what they can and cannot do
- Simulation – 30min
- Super-resolution – 30min
- Standard EM – 30min
Supported by: International Training Network Program
