iRTG Workshop in Wittenberg
Aims
This workshop addresses doctoral students in chemistry, physics, biophysics, and related fields in the iRTG "Polymers: random coils and beyond". The doctoral students will introduce the basic theoretical and technical concepts necessary for an understanding of projects within the iRTG. The iRTG workshop focuses on experimental and theoretical techniques to study synthetic polymer and biopolymer systems.

- Structure and dynamics of biopolymers
- Inter- and intramolecular dynamics of PMPS
- Coarse graining approaches
- Molecular dynamics by spin relaxation
- Surface energy of porous and surface modified materials
- Model polymer melts with GROMACS
- Statistical data analysis
- Monolayers of amphiphilic molecules
- Liquid-state/solid-state NMR
- Structure analysis by diffraction
- Real time control of experimental setups
- Polymer characterization by chromatography
- Surface imaging of soft polimeric substances
