Liquids and Complex Fluids Group Winter School
Solutions in the Snow
5–8 January 2009
Hinsley Hall, University of Leeds, UK
Applications are invited for the 3rd Institute of Physics Liquids and Complex Fluids/EPSRC Winter School. The aim of this School is to provide a comprehensive foundation for researchers in the field of liquids and complex fluids. The lectures will introduce key topics of current interest together with the theoretical, experimental and computer simulation approaches used to address them. The School is directed towards postgraduate students from a wide range of backgrounds including physics, chemistry, chemical engineering and biophysics.
The School is built around a rolling programme of lectures, which will ensure that the majority of PhD students can cover the full programme over a three year period. Each School will consist of a series of lectures presented by active members of the community. In 2009 these include Matthew Turner (University of Warwick), Tom McLeish (University of Durham), Jacob Klein (Weizmann Institute) and Nigel Wilding (University of Bath).
The School is organised by the Institute of Physics Liquids and Complex Fluids Group (LCFG) and supported by the EPSRC. The cost of attending, accommodation and meals (but excluding travel) is £320 for academic and £500 for industrial participants. A limited number of free places are available to UK students whose work is covered by the EPSRC remit.*
