Topological transitions and cell-cell adhesion properties in biological development
Corominas Murtra, Bernat, Ass.-Prof. PhD, Institute of Biology - University of Graz

The biological developmental process —the process that starts with one fertilized cell and ends with the fully developed individual— implies precise but significant changes in the geometry and structure of the embryonic tissues. Recent results show that apparently minor changes i ... more

Solvation of ions, surfactants and polymers at interfaces and in confinement
Douwe Jan Bonthuis, ITPCP, TU Graz

In contact with aqueous solutions, many interface types spontaneously acquire a surface charge through deprotonation, adsorption of charged species, or both. Moreover, modification of surface properties by polymer adsorption is a widely used technique to tune interactions in expe ... more

Nanophotonics meet Optical Fibers: a flexible concept for single-virus sensing, achromatic light focusing and optical trapping
Prof. Dr. Markus A. Schmidt, Leibniz Institute of Photonic Technology e.V. / Otto Schott Institute of Material Research Friedrich Schiller / University Jena ,Germany

Optical fibers provide a waveguide platform with unique advantages, especially in the fields of bioanalytics and life sciences. In this talk, I will report our recent results on fibers (i) that are interfaced with nanostructures and (ii) that are used for the characterization of ... more

Flavour matters – Highlights from the LHCb experiment
Prof. Dr. Stephanie Hansmann-Menzemer, Physikalisches Institut, Universität Heidelberg

The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) close to Geneva holds many records. Amongst others, it is the world largest flavour factory. More than 10^12 particles containing bottom quarks and even more containing charm quarks have been recorded by the LHCb experiment, in recent years. Ex ... more

Nanocomposites and polymer thin films: from gas phase synthesis to functional applications
Franz Faupel, Kiel University

Highly filled particulate metal-dielectric nanocomposites films have unique functional properties with hosts of applications. To explore collective interactions between the particles, we control the particle separation on the nm scale by employing vapor phase deposition, which is ... more

Mesoscale phase transformations in beyond-intercalation-type batteries
Christian Prehal, Department of Information Technology and Electrical Engineering, ETH Zürich, Switzerland, cprehal@ethz.ch

Realizing beyond intercalation-type batteries, such as Metal-sulfur (Me-S) batteries, could be game-changing due to a theoretical specific capacity amongst the highest of all batteries paired with the low cost and sustainability of sulfur. However, the insufficient understanding ... more
