International Summer School on Supramolecular Nanosystems

The Summer School takes place from 27^th to 31^st July 2015. It will provide an introduction to the fundamental forces, interactions and mechanisms governing the formation structure and properties of supramolecular nanosystems. Individual lectures will focus on the following topics:

• Intermolecular forces
• Self assembly of dyes
• Thermodynamics of colloidal nanosystems
• Polymer self assemblies
• Nanochemistry
• Liquid crystals
• Soft biomaterials
• Nanoassemblies for drug delivery

The program will consist of a combination of lectures, tutorials, poster sessions and lab tours.

Lectures will be held by the following scientists of the University of Wuerzburg

• Prof. Ingo Fischer, Institute of Physical and Theoretical Chemistry
• Prof. Jürgen Groll, Department for Functional Materials in Medicine and Dentistry
• Prof. Tobias Hertel, Institute of Physical and Theoretical Chemistry
• Prof. Dirk Kurth, Materials Synthesis
• Prof. Matthias Lehmann, Institute of Organic Chemistry
• Prof. Robert Luxenhofer, Materials Synthesis
• Prof. Frank Würthner, Institute of Organic Chemistry

Last but not least we are pleased to welcome the renowed Prof. Alexander Kabanov, director of the Center for Nanotechnology in Drug Delivery and Codirector of the Carolina Institute for Nanomedcine.

Besides professional exchanges you get a chance for networking and meeting people of different nationalities during the framework program in the evening. The city of Wuerzburg with its rich historic heritage and its renown winemaking culture provides the perfect surrounding conditions for an unforgettable time.
