Brownian Motion: a Paradigm for Soft Matter and Biological Physics

26.09.2005 – 28.09.2005

The workshop is co-organized with the Center for NanoScience (CeNS) and will take place on September 26-28, 2005 at the Ludwig-Maximilians-University Munich.  The program will start Monday 9 am and end Wednesday  4 pm. For Monday night we plan to visit the famous Munich Oktoberfest.
