Urgent : Postdoc Controlled Wrinkling of Soft Materials (USACH – Chile)

Dear colleagues,
The Chilean National Agency of Research (ANID) has called for applications for postdoctoral positions based in Chile. The grants extend from 2 to 3 years and cover a very competitive salary, funds for scholar visits, installation expenses, and some funds for project expenses. I am supporting applications for a project at the Physics Department of the University of Santiago, Chile starting on April 2023. The project aims to develop smart soft materials that wrinkle under controlled actuation and study interactions with fluids, aiming to applications to medical prosthetics, food processing, cleaning industry, and naval infrastructure. The research team combines postdocs, Ph.D. students, undergraduate students (Engineering Physicists), three full researchers, and many international collaborators.  

If you are interested please contact me as soon as possible at leonardo.gordillo@usach.cl (deadline: April 29th),
I would be grateful if you could forward this announcement to potential candidates.

Best wishes,Leonardo GordilloDepartamento de Física

Mini-Colloque sur la matière granulaire aux Journées de la Matière Condensée

Les Journées de la Matière Condensée se tiendront à Lyon cette année (http://jmc2022.univ-lyon1.fr/fr/pages/jmc-2022-home). Plusieurs Mini-Colloques concernent les dynamiques collectives pour la matière condensée (MC5), ou considéré de manière plus générale (MC6). Nous avons proposé un minicolloque intitulé « MC7 : Comportements collectifs de grains en interaction avec leur environnement« . Ce mini-colloque vise à rassembler des contributions tournées vers l’étude des matériaux granulaires dans toute la diversité des situations dans lesquelles ils peuvent se retrouver. Doctorants et chercheurs expérimentés dont les travaux scientifiques concernent ces thématiques sont donc cordialement invités à participer à ce minicolloque.

La date limite pour les soumissions d’abstract est fixée au 15 Avril. 

A bientôt, 

Guillaume Dumazer, Guilhem Mollon et Olivier Bonnefoy

This intense two-week school is intended for graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, and professionals seeking to overcome traditional disciplinary boundaries in the fields relevant to the physics of complex systems. The school covers basic concepts, tools, and current topics relevant to the problem of disorder in complex systems. These include glassy systems, nonlinear dynamics, scaling, soft matter, and other topical areas or case studies.

Lectures are taught by the faculty of Paris-Saclay and guest leading educators and scholars from other renowned institutions. Formal classes and seminars, are complemented by discussions and activities hosted by the laboratories of the University.

An internship program following the 2-week school is also offered to a smaller subset of selected participants.

Les Houches Summer School on « The New Mechanics »

Dear colleagues,

I have the pleasure to advertise the « New Mechanics » Les Houches Summer
School,
organized next August by Pierre Verlot, Hubert Krenner end myself.

The School is motivated by the development of ultra-sensitive mechanical
systems over the past 30 years,
in areas such as atomic force microscopy, macroscopic resonators,
biophysics, the statistical physics of non-equilibrium systems…
The school will cover these expanding fields, both from a theoretical
and an experimental point of view.
Participants will also have the opportunity to discover the basics of
experimental physics
by designing, building, soldering, interfacing  and operating a cm-size
mockup of an AFM.

See more details about the school at
https://houchesnewmech.sciencesconf.org/
or
https://www.houches-school-physics.com/program/program-2022/summer-school-the-new-mechanics-953150.kjsp

Interested students are welcome to apply on the Les Houches website.

Best regards,
Pierre-Francois
