Prof. Schneck Group

Our research is focused on the physics and self-assembly of biomolecular soft matter. With the help of x-ray/neutron scattering and complementary methods we investigate soft matter of biological or biotechnological relevance, such as lipid membranes, (bio)polymers, or surface-adsorbed protein layers, in order to determine their structure on molecular and supramolecular (mesoscopic) length scales.
