Dr. Matej Krajnc has been awarded RSF funding for his FUTURE project, titled “MEchanics, Topology, And Geometry of Natural Optimizing Networks.” The RSF Committee announced the award after reviewing 42 proposals, including 22 under the FUTURE category. Following a rigorous … Read More
Understanding how much gas shale reservoirs can hold is crucial for efficient gas extraction and carbon sequestration. Our computer simulations reveal that traditional methods, which use helium as a proxy, overestimate these capacities by a factor of two, highlighting the … Read More
The meeting will take place in Tehnopark in Celje from 6 – 7 June 2024. It will cover various topics in biophysics ranging from molecules to cells and tissues.
Urška Andrenšek, Primož Ziherl in Matej Krajnc z Odseka za teoretično fiziko Instituta “Jožef Stefan” so s sodelavci z Université Côte d’Azur v reviji Developmental Cell objavili članek z naslovom A mechanical wave travels along a genetic guide to drive the … Read More
Obveščamo vas, da bodo od 18. do 23. marca tradicionalno potekali Dnevi Jožefa Stefana, ki jih že od leta 1993 izvajamo v počastitev rojstnega dneva slovitega fizika Jožefa Stefana, katerega ime nosi naš inštitut. To je teden, ko odpremo vrata … Read More
The Slovenian Biophysical Society welcomes members from the Department of Theoretical Physics (F1) to its newly formed board, with Dr. Matej Kanduč as President, Dr. Matej Krajnc as Secretary, and Dr. Anže Rapoš Božič. The society is dedicated to advancing … Read More
A recent publication by M. Šako, F. Staniscia, and M. Kanduč in PNAS Nexus unveils the conditions under which lipid monolayers can spontaneously self-assemble on solid substrates. Although it has long been known that this process requires a sufficiently hydrophobic … Read More
Urška Andrenšek, Primož Ziherl, and Matej Krajnc published a paper in Physical Review Letters. In their work, they investigate the elasticity of an unsupported epithelial monolayer and they discover that unlike a thin solid plate, which wrinkles if geometrically incompatible … Read More
The workshop will take place in Ljubljana, August 27–30, 2023. It aims to identify the most exciting prospects and challenges in the field. It will host the most far distinguished researchers worldwide, experimentalists and theorists alike. There will be time … Read More
While the temperature-responsive behavior of nonionic polymers has been extensively studied and is nowadays one of the key mechanisms of smart materials, the pressure response of thin films remains basically unexplored. We investigate the conformational transition of nonionic brushes and … Read More
