Self-Assembly in Solution I

Monday, November 8, 2010: 12:30 PM
Topaz Room (Hilton)

Description:
The “Self-Assembly in Solution” session invites novel works and recent advances dealing with self-assembly of surfactants, lipids, polymers, and biopolymers. Experimental, theoretical, and computational papers are welcomed. In addition to traditional self-assembling components and microstructures, we welcome works dealing with newer amphiphiles, newer structures (such as self-assembling peptides), and mixed systems (such as surfactant/polyelectrolyte).
