Among its goals is to bring together scientists from diverse backgrounds in the pursuit of better science, better training, and better outreach to society while also seeking out new ways to engage with local and global industry. The contribution of ICN2 to 3D-TOPO is ...
Our research focuses on soft matter formed by weakly interacting organic molecules. The emphasis is on systems with orientational order, known as liquid crystals, and their composites, such as dispersions of colloidal particles in liquid crystals, water dispersions of self-organizing chromonic aggregates, living liquid crystals. Sensitivity of liquid crystals to weak electric fields led to revolutionary changes in the way we present information nowadays, through LCDs. This sensitivity of structural and dynamic behavior (often out-of-equilibrium) of liquid crystals in response to weak physical and chemical cues poses research problems or fundamental importance in soft matter physics, chemistry, materials science, and mathematical modelling. The study of soft matter offers a path of thinking about processes in biological systems and opens new technological horizons. Our studies are enabled by a strong infrastructure of the Liquid Crystal Institute, state-of-the-art facilities, and by a broad range of collaborative projects with colleagues representing disciplines from chemical synthesis to applied mathematics. The contribution of KSU to 3D-TOPO is ...
CONICET is the largest research agency in Argentina, which employs more than 10.000 staff researchers and 11.000 fellows. CONICET research activities include all natural and social sciences. CNEA/CONICET host the Institute of Nanoscience and Nanotechnology (INN) which has geographic poles in Buenos Aires and Bariloche. INN brings together over 200 researchers including 40 leading investigators based across multiple disciplines including Physics, Chemistry, Biology and Engineering. The Institute of Physics Rosario (IFIR) is a unit of CONICET and the Rosario's National University (UNR) conducts research and developments in physics. The Institute was created in 1980 and is currently organized into four divisions: Materials Science and Technology, Condensed Matter, Theoretical Physics and Applied Physics. The contribution of CONICET to 3D-TOPO is ...
