Fourth International Symposium Frontiers in Polymer Science

Riva del Garda, Italy
The 3-day symposium will consist of 15 plenary lectures (of 50 minutes each), given by outstanding scientists whose exceptionally creative work opens up new frontiers for polymer science. In addition, there will be three poster sessions (each consisting of two parts within the same day) allowing for the viewing of a large number of poster presentations.

Join top plenary speakers and international delegates at the Fourth International Symposium Frontiers in Polymer Science.

  1. Dresden: courses on general polymer theory and simulation 13 April 2016. Core training courses will cover such topics as methodology, models, and statistical estimation and hypothesis tests. Essential background and computational models for modelling lipid bilayers and their interactions with nano-objects will also be provided. Given the large differences in background between experimental and theoretical/computational ESRs, training courses will aim to highlight these two areas at [...]...

Peroxidised phospholipid bilayers: insight from Coarse-Grained Molecular Dynamics simulations Soft Matter, 12, 263-271 (2016) Yachong Guo, Vladimir Baulin and Fabrice Thalmann An original coarse-grained model for peroxidised phospholipids is presented, based on the MARTINI lipid force field. This model results from a combination of thermodynamic modelling and structural information on the area per lipid, which have been made available recently. The resulting coarse-grained lipid molecules form stable bilayers, [...]...

  4. Homo-polymers with balanced hydrophobicity translocate through lipid bilayers and enhance local solvent permeability Marco Werner, Jens-Uwe Sommer and Vladimir A. Baulin Soft Matter, 8, 11708-11716 (2012) Recent experimental studies indicate that polymeric structures with a well-adjusted balance of amphiphilic parts may translocate through self-assembled phospholipid bilayers and enhance the passive trans-membrane transport of smaller molecules. Using a coarse grained lattice Monte Carlo model with explicit solvent we investigate self-assembled lipid [...]...
  5. Coarse-grained models of phospholipid membranes within the single chain mean field theory S. Pogodin and V.A. Baulin Soft Matter, 6, 2216 – 2226 (2010) The single chain mean field theory is used to simulate the equilibrium structure of phospholipid membranes at the molecular level. Three levels of coarse-graining of DMPC phospholipid surfactants are present: the detailed 44-beads double tails model, the 10-beads double tails model and the minimal 3-beads [...]...
