Dr. Verena Görtz from the Department of Chemistry, University of York, United Kingdom, visits the Soft Nano- and Microstructures and Liquid Crystal and Nanocomposites labs at the GSCST on 10.12.2012. She will give a lecture on liquid crystal elastomers, going from basic principles to current and future applications, adapted to a diverse audience (thus requiring no background in liquid crystals or polymers) at 5pm in room D-122. Welcome!

Wiktor Piecek and Zbigniev Raszewski will visit GSCST and give talk on antiferroelectric liquid crystals
