There’s still just time to submit your poster abstract for Soft Matter Approaches to Structured Foods: Faraday Discussion 158 – by the deadline date of 25 May.
Food materials are unusual as soft matter. They are highly complex, operating on multiple length scales and phases and structured via multiple externally applied fields.
This discussion will focus on state-of-the-art approaches like soft-glass rheology, multiscale/mesoscale simulation techniques, theories on slow dynamics, and driven soft matter systems, within these themes:
- Structuring formation via external fields (shear, intensive heating, electric)
- Structuring formation via self-assembly (adsorption at interfaces/organogels)
- Slow dynamics in stabilized/jammed foods
- Simulation of structured soft matter/foods at multiple length scales
The aim is to provide a platform for the exchange of views between food scientists and non-food experts from the soft matter community. Food & Function board members Dr Job Ubbink, Professor Alejandro Marangoni and Professor Erik van der Linden are all speaking at the Discussion.
Taking part in a Faraday Discussion is a great way to get your research work better known. To have your own poster space at the meeting be sure to submit yours now .
Registration is quick and simple via our online booking system, so act now.
Dr Ruud van der Sman and the rest of the Scientific Committee look forward to welcoming you to Wageningen in July 2012.
