Problematike: topološki izolatorji (Rejec, Žitko, Ramšak, Mravlje) vpliv nereda in večdelčna lokalizacija (Vidmar, Bonča, Lenarčič) dinamična teorija povprečnega polja (Žitko, Mravlje) študij transportnih lastnosti v koreliranih snoveh (Žitko, Mravlje, Vidmar, … Read More

We are inviting applications for a postdoctoral position in the condensed matter group of the Department of Theoretical Physics at the Jožef Stefan Institute (Ljubljana, Slovenia), supervised by Jernej Mravlje. The main subject of the research is the electronic transport … Read More

Permeability is one of the most fundamental transport properties in soft matter physics, material engineering, and nanofluidics. Here, we report how the permeability can be massively tuned, even minimized or maximized, by tailoring the potential energy landscape for the diffusing … Read More

Theoretical Biophysics and Soft Matter Group at the Department of Theoretical Physics, Jožef Stefan Institute, is announcing a PhD position, awarded by Faculty of Mathematics and Physics, University of Ljubljana. The PhD candidate will work in the field of RNA … Read More

The spike protein of SARS-CoV-2 (CoV2) is required for cell entry and is the primary target for vaccine and therapy development. Unveiling molecular-scale mechanisms relevant to the diffusion of viral particles and their encounter with the cell membrane receptor (ACE2) … Read More

A large number of infectious diseases are transmitted by respiratory droplets. How long these droplets persist in the air, how far they can travel, and how long the pathogens they might carry survive are all decisive factors for the spread … Read More

In the ACS Nano article “How the Shape and Chemistry of Molecular Penetrants Control Responsive Hydrogel Permeability” we uncover the molecular principles of permeability and selectivity in hydrogels. The permeability of small molecules (drugs, toxins, reactants, etc.) through hydrogels is … Read More

Pollen grains carry male plant genetic material, encapsulated in a hard protective shell containing flexible, soft regions—apertures. When pollen grains leave the protective environment of the anther, they are exposed to the often harsh external environment and start to lose … Read More

V reviji Nature je bila objavljena raziskava, pri kateri je sodeloval tudi Matej Krajnc. V članku z naslovom “Mechanics of a multilayer epithelium instruct tumour architecture and function” so Vincent F. Fiore z Univerze Rockefeller in sodelavci naslovili vlogo mehanike pri deformacijah … Read More
