Our research training group is pleased to announce the 2nd Workshop from October 7th to 9th 2025 in Mainz. This interdisciplinary workshop aims to advance our understanding of structure formation and self-organization in soft materials from supramolecular to colloidal, focusing on the interplay of experiment and computational modeling.
Topics include:
- Dissipative and non-equilibrium assemblies
- Molecular engineering
- Computational models
- Electrosolutions & Interfaces
- Supramolecular functional materials
- Polymer brushes
- Liquid crystals
We invite abstracts for posters and a few selected contributed talks.
Information about Registration will come soon.

Pre-Conference Student Workshop
Note that there will be a pre-workshop on October 6th with the aim to facilitate networking amongst students in the field of structure formation in soft materials. Only external PhD students (and early-career postdocs) will present their work through contributed talks followed by aq social gathering of students. If you are interested to participate in addition to the workshop, please submit an abstract of your work here. We will inform about the selected talks beginning of September.
Venue
The meeting will take place on the campus of the Johannes Gutenberg University in Mainz. Oral and poster sessions are located in the lecture hall C01 and foyer of the Schulz-Horner Building (2321), in between the Physics and Chemistry buildings (marked with "P" on the map).
