The 3+1 hours lecture course plus exercise class
(seminar) accounts for 6 ECTS credit points.
The lecture covers the physics of soft condensed matter with outlook on modern
aspects of active and living matter and medical applications. The topics
covered are: (i) colloids, (ii) liquid crystals, (iii) polymers&gels, (iv)
self-assembly & medical nanoparticles, (v) active&living matter.
Participants should be part of the physics masters program. Basic knowledge in
mechanics, electrostatics, optics and in particular statistical physics is
required.

We will explore the molecular mechanisms and foundations of biology from
a physics perspective. The course material will enable physicists to
model biological systems from a molecular perspective, laying the
foundations of proteins, DNA, RNA, lipids and small molecules. The aim
is to gain a fundamental molecular understanding of the inner workings
of cells and biological processes. Links to modern biotechnology allows
to assess the background of the many startup companies that emerged from
LMU Biophysics (Nanion, NanoTemper, GATTAquant, Amplifold). The lecture will include an introduction
to modeling reaction-diffusion systems with Comsol.
