SynBioPoly22: Polymer Physics Summer School in Halle and Leipzig (August 27 - September 2, 2022)

From August 27 to September 2, 2022 the Polymer Physics Summer School "SynBioPoly22" took place in Halle (Saale) and Leipzig. The summer school was aimed at introducing the basic concepts regarding the physical basics of macromoleclar systems, structure formation of synthetic as well as biological polymers and to introduce experimental techniques and simulation methods along with promoting cultural exchange amongst a diverse group of 40 future polymer scientists.
Besides the scientific part, we offered a rich social program. The scientific part consisted of 17 lectures, 2 lab courses (from a total of 12 different available lab courses) and a poster session. The social part included a varied range of activities like Stand Up Paddling and a wine tasting in Freyburg.

The summer school was a resounding success with more applications than available places and a very good networking between the participants, who continue to be in contact with each other via social media.
