A post about Pablo also has a German flavour;-) Pablo attended a cool soft matter conference in Germany, presenting a poster on his graph analysis of networks,
Then he went onto Leipzig to visit David Smith’s group who have been doing some cool stuff making “polymers” of designed stiffness using DNA asssemblies;-)

I can’t find any pictures of Pablo without leather-clad ladies or drug paraphernalia featuring heavily…so here are some cool pics of assembled polymers from David’s work…

Well done Dr Marj;-)! Marjorie successfully defended her thesis last week on “Developing a Dual Trap Optical Tweezers Method to Measure Interactions Between a Pair of Oil Drops“.
