Frontiers of Photoactive Soft Matter: Manipulating Soft Matter with Light

September 21-22, 2017 ÌýÌýÌý

This two-day workshop will be devoted to discussing some of the newest developments in the field of photomanipulation of soft materials and interfaces, with invited lectures from leading researchers that will emphasize emergent materials science, and soft matter physics, chemistry, optics and photonics. Young scientists, including students and postdocs, are especially encouraged to attend. There will be contributed poster sessions for all workshop participants, with ample opportunities for discussion and interaction throughout the meeting.

The workshop will take place on the beautiful campus of the University of Colorado, in Boulder, Colorado, from September 21–22, 2017, immediately following the , to be held at the St Julien Hotel in Boulder from September 17–20.
