'Condensed Matter Interface with Chemistry and Biology'
March 3 -14, 2008
Venue: Homi Bhabha Centre for Science Education, Mankhurd, Mumbai


PURPOSE
The aim of this School is to equip young solid state physicists (mostly
Ph. D. students and postdocs  from educational and research
institutions in India) with sufficient knowledge of topics in Chemistry
and Biology that interface with the soft matter aspects. The lectures
will be delivered  by well-known experts from India and abroad, who
have several years of experience in their respective fields.

TOPICS
Self-assembly, functional materials, surfactants, conducting polymers,
colloids, molecular/organic electronics, organic/plastic  LEDs and
photovoltaics, bio-inspired physics and engineering, MNP-based
applications including drug delivery/human health, bio-sensors,
bio-MEMS and biomedical devices, fuel cells, hydrogen storage, etc.
