Dr. Ingo Hoffmann

Research interests

I am generally interested in the structure and dynamics of soft matter systems, with a special focus on:

.  Structure and dynamics of oppositely charged polyelectrolyte surfactant systems
.  Mesoscale membrane dynamics

Technical developments

.  In-situ DLS for IN15

Methods

.  NSE, SANS, DLS, NMR, Rheology
