Gordon research Conference: Soft Condensed Matter Physics – Bio-Soft Matter: Dynamical and Structural Complexity

New London NH, USA
Bio-Soft Matter: Dynamical and Structural Complexity

This Gordon Conference focuses on the emerging properties of complex soft matter systems. We are interested in spontaneous self organization processes and the resulting physical properties of soft matter systems spanning a broad range from colloids to cell biological systems. We explore how the fundamental principles of physics that are evident in soft matter systems also can be applied in biological systems. Reciprocally, we will address how bio-inspired approaches can be applied to construct and understand novel materials for various applications.

  4. 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, [...]...
