GENERAL
INFORMATION
Workshop on morphology of surfaces and interfaces in soft matter: fundamentals and applications is intended as a mini-school for young researchers working in chemistry or physics. The meeting aims at exposing young people to the recent advances in the theory and the experiment in soft matter by leading scientists
The scientific programme will include invited talks.
Each of invited speakers will give two 45 minutes lectures. The meeting will provide ample time and space for exchanging of information and experience and for discussing results of the own research by limiting the number of participants to 30. The poster contribution are welcomed.
