Interaction of biological membranes with nano-objects
Nano/bio interfaces are crucial both for nanomedicine and as regards nanoparticles toxicity. The workshop will focus on emerging complementary tools and approaches developed to study how nano-objects interact with biological membranes: biomimetic and natural membranes, microfluidic technologies, biophysics of endocytosis, in silico studies, physical-chemistry of nano-objects and membranes.
The preliminary program is available here: Program
The goal is to put together researchers from different communities in order to progress on our understanding of the nano/bio interface, identify challenges and opportunities, and initiate new collaborations.
The workshop is organized within the framework of CNRS international PICS program “Microfluidics for Soft Matter”.
The seminar will take place in LAAS-CNRS, Toulouse. Practical information to reach LAAS can be found here.
The talks will start on Monday the 18th at 9am, and the workshop will finish on Tuesday noon.
