Special Talk: One hundred years of electrified interfaces: What's new with the theories of Debye and Onsager?
Speaker: Prof. David Andelman, Tel Aviv University, Israel
Profile: David Andelman completed his PhD studies in Physics at MIT in 1984. Between 1984-87 he was a Joliot-Curie post-doc fellow at College de France (in the group of P.G. de Gennes) and at Exxon Research and Engineering (New Jersey). Since 1987 he has been on the faculty of the School of Physics of Tel Aviv University. His interest lies in modeling soft and biological matter within the tools of statistical physics. In recent years, he worked on charged soft matter including polyelectrolytes, ionic liquids and solutions, and charged membranes, exploring their equilibrium and electrokinetic properties.
