Synchrotron and Neutron Scattering in Biomaterials and Soft Matter
The aim of the workshop is to gather a community of current and future users of neutron scattering within the cross-interdisciplinary areas of biology and soft matter. The idea is to show the mutual benefit when traditional methodologies from soft matter sciences are brought together and applied to biological systems.
Besides basic science, we aim to demonstrate the capability of neutron and synchrotron scattering on biomedical and technological applications including:
- Formulation of biologics
- Drug design
- Pharmaceuticals
- Implants
This meeting further aims to gather experts across disciplines so as to strengthen and develop the expertise in scattering techniques within the Nordic community.
The workshop is aimed at both industry and academia. There will be four main sessions focusing on:
- Biology
- Interfaces
- Solution
- Industrial applications
Each session will end with a group discussion on what are the conditions required to increase and strengthen the user community of MAX IV and ESS.
