Self-Assembly in Solution


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).
