New Frontiers in Macromolecular Science:
From Macromolecular Concepts of Living Matter
to Polymers for Better Quality of Life

Dedicated to the 50^th anniversary of the Institute of Macromolecular Chemistry in Prague

Prague, Czech Republic
July 5 - 9, 2009

Organised by the Institute of Macromolecular Chemistry of the Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic and under the auspices of the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry .

Chairman: F. Rypáček
Honorary Chairmen: H. Morawetz, J. Kopeček, H. Ringsdorf

CONFERENCE TOPICS

I. Bioanalogous and Biomimetic Principles and Materials

Chairmen: J. Kopeček, K. Ulbrich

bioanalogous and biomimetic concepts in design of polymer biomaterials – biomaterial/cell interfaces – bio-interactions of polymers through molecular recognition – polymer-derived stealth properties – drug targeting and delivery through macromolecular carriers

II. Molecular and Supramolecular Organization in Macromolecular Systems

Chairmen: C. K. Ober, P. Štěpánek

polymeric materials with hierarchical structure - supramolecular polymer assemblies - targeted synthesis of self-ordering polymers - self-organized polymer materials responsive to external stimuli - polymers at ordered surfaces and interfaces - dynamics in organized polymeric systems - theoretical models of self-organized polymer systems - advanced methods for structure analysis of macromolecules
