SOFT FIRE Flyer

​

Overview

Soft condensed matter are the subject of a large number of investigations all around the world, both from a fundamental point of view and form a more applied side, due to the large number of practical questions relying on the aptitude of soft matter to provide large responses to small solicitations.

​

Following the first Dynasoft 08 and 2010 workshop, held in August 2008 and august 2010, the present workshop Soft-FIRE will focus the relationship between fundamental research and applied research devoting an important part of the discussions to Industrial talks with a scientific favor. The aim of the workshop will be to present the state of the art on a number of fast evolving questions and to promote discussions and interactions between researchers but also to give the opportunity to Young researchers to develop a professional career individual perspective. 

Main topics will include 
* Soft matter physics 
* Soft chemistry 
* Microfluidics 
* Statistical physics in soft matter 
* Polymers for energy 
* Drug delivery 
* Polymer electronics 
* Technical methods 
* Biophysics viruses
* Colloids
