• Prof. Friederike Schmid, Condensed Matter Theory Group, Institute of Physics, University of Mainz, Germany
• Friday 10 May 2013, 12:00-13:00
• Unilever Lecture Theatre, Department of Chemistry.

If you have a question about this talk, please contact Dr. Judith B. Rommel.

In the talk, I will present some recent research results in our group. It splits up into two rather unrelated parts. In the first part, I will talk about computer simulations and elastic theories for lipid membranes, which have given insight into possible origins of lipid rafts. In the second part, I will give a very brief tutorial on the self-consistent field theory of inhomogeneous polymer systems (I was asked to do so), and present a new approach to studying copolymer networks within this framework.

This talk is part of the Extra Theoretical Chemistry Seminars series.
