Congratulations to Philipp Schönhöfer, now Dr Schönhöfer, for completing an excellent computational PhD thesis on the self-assembly of pear-shaped colloid particles, now fully published! Read more
Well done, Tobias Hain, for the publication of your first research paper. A lovely piece of simulation work, carried out together with Jacob Kirkensgaard, on geometric mechanisms at play when copolymers self-organise on a spherical substrate. Not only did the pretty pictures tickle the interest of Softmatter’s front page department, but the message resonated with a member of the public… Read more
