SUMMARY:University Professor of Experimental soft matter Physics
DESCRIPTION:As a research university with high international visibility and a wide range of degree programmes\, the University of Vienna is committed to basic research open to application and research-led teaching\, as well as to career development of young researchers and to the dialogue with economy and society. That way\, the University of Vienna contributes to the education of future generations and to the society’s ability to innovate. \nThe appointment of particularly qualified researchers to university professors is an important strategy of the University of Vienna. Become part of this vibrant and future-oriented organisation.  \nAt the Faculty of Physics of the University of Vienna the position of a University Professor of Experimental soft matter Physics (full time\, permanent position) is to be filled. \nWe are looking for an outstanding researcher with an internationally established record and reputation in the broad area of experimental soft condensed matter physics\, non-equilibrium statistical mechanics\, or biological physics. The research topics of interest include\, without being limited to these: self-assembly behavior of soft matter in- and out-of equilibrium; phase transformations; novel soft and hybrid and composite materials; active systems; stochastic thermodynamics; rheology; and physics-oriented approach to biological systems.  Applicants are expected to strengthen the existing research focus of the Faculty of Physics on soft matter\, statistical mechanics and soft materials by conducting world-class research\, by attracting competitive funding and by actively promoting collaboration with theoretical/computational soft matter groups of the Faculty of Physics.

SUMMARY:3-D microfluidics to study break up of blood aggregates
DESCRIPTION:The goal of this research project is to understand the break up of natural blood aggregates in model 3-D microfluidic channels as well as physiological shaped channels\, tuning the interplay between interaction strength and complex flow geometries. The candidate will design \, build and use a range of micro-fluidic channel structures \, which should finally mimic blood flow from the heart to the brain. To this end a novel Laser etching techniques will be used\, which can produce arbitrary shaped channels on a scale of a few micrometers and this technique will be coupled to real 3D data of the micro-vascular system as it is being obtained  in Jülich. \nThe candidate will have a background in physics\, mechanical or chemical engineering\, preferentially with interest in biological and Soft Matter systems. He/she should have experimental as well as computational skills. He/she will work mainly in the department ICS-2\, with long stays in the ZEA-1  and INM-1\, respectively the engineering and Human Brain department. The degree will be granted at the physics department of the KU Leuven.

SUMMARY:International Symposium on Polyelectrolytes\, 12th edition
DESCRIPTION:https://www.vlaggraduateschool.nl/en/courses/course/ISP2018.htm \nThe meeting is the 12th in the ISP series of conferences started in 1995\, on the physics and physical chemistry of polyelectrolytes\, with a focus on understanding how electrostatic interactions determine and influence the behaviour of synthetic and biological charged macromolecules in solution\, in complexes and at interfaces. We aim at continuing the success of the 11th edition in Moscow (2016) by providing a stimulating forum with prominent keynote and plenary speakers\, ample opportunities for submitted oral and poster presentations\, and plenty of opportunities to discuss and interact with colleagues. The conference venue is the Wageningen International Congress Centre (www.wicc.nl)\, Wageningen\, the Netherlands. Wageningen is conveniently located\, just one hour by train from Amsterdam Airport Schiphol. Ahead of the conference\, on August 26 and 27\, a PhD course on polyelectrolytes will be organized that will be free of charge for PhD students attending the conference\, featuring extended tutorial lectures by a selection of the organizers and plenary speakers of the conference.  \nKeynote speakers:\n Michael Rubinstein (Duke University\, USA)\nRussell Stewart (University of Utah\, USA)\nChristine Keating (Penn State University\, USA) \n  \nPlenary sessions \n  \nPolyelectrolytes theory and modeling\n Katia Zhulina (Institute of Macromolecular Compounds\,St Petersburg\, Russia)\nCharles Sing (University of Illinois\, USA)\nFabien Léonforte (L’Oréal Research and Innovation\, France) \n  \nPolyelectrolyte complexes at interfaces\n Henrik Birkedal (Aarhus University\, Denmark)\nPhilipp Erni (Firmenich\, Switzerland) \n  \nPolyelectrolytes and coacervation in cell biology\n Tim Nott (University of Oxford\, UK)\nRoy Beck (Tel Aviv University\, Israel) \n  \nBiological and biohybrid polyelectrolytes\n Tanja Weil (MPI for Polymer Research\, Mainz\, Germany)\nMauri Konstiainen (Aalto University\, Finland) \n  \nPolyelectrolyte complex coacervation\n Sarah Perry (University of Massachusetts\, USA)\nPaul Dubin (University of Massachusetts\, USA) \n  \nConjugated polyelectrolytes & poly(ionic liquids)\n Ulli Scherf ((Bergische Universität Wuppertal\, Germany)\nChristophe Detrembleur (University of Liège\, Belgium)\nJoris Sprakel (WUR\, The Netherlands)\,  \n  \nPolyelectrolyte membranes\n Ivo Vankelecom (KU Leuven\, Belgium)\nJoris de Grooth (NX Filtration\, Enschede\, The Netherlands) \n  \nInternational organizing committee:\n Paul Dubin\, University of Massachusetts\, USA; Ray Farinato\, Solvay\, USA; Alexei Khokhlov\, Moscow State University\, Russia; Serge Stoll\, University of Geneva\, Switzerland; Ulrich Scheler\, Leibniz Institute Polymer Research\, Dresden\, Germany \n  \nLocal organizing commitee:\n Renko de Vries (chair)\, Frans Leermakers (co-chair)\, Wageningen University and Research; Eva Oudshoorn (secretariat)\, Wageningen University and Research\, Graduate School VLAG; Evan Spruijt\, Radboud University Nijmegen; Ilja Voets\, Eindhoven University of Technology; Jasper van der Gucht\, Marleen Kamperman\, Louis de Smet\, Wageningen University and Research; Andreas Herrmann\, University of Groningen; Simeon Stoyanov\, Unilever R&D\, Vlaardingen; Wiebe de Vos\, Saskia Lindhoud\, University of Twente. \n  \nAbstracts for 20 min oral and posters presentations can be submitted for these topics\, as well as on any topic that relates to the general focus of this conference series\, which is on the influence of electrostatic interactions on the behaviour of synthetic and biological charged macromolecules in solution\, in complexes and at interfaces.
