Books By Paul van der Schoot - Author

Paul van der Schoot is a soft matter theorist in the research group Theory of Polymers and Soft Matter at the Eindhoven University of Technology. Since 2009 he is (part-time) Lorentz professor of Theoretical Physics at the Institute for Theoretical Physics of Utrecht University. Van der Schoot is working on the boundary between physics, chemistry, biology and nanoscience. His research includes the application of statistical mechanical theory to problems in soft biological matter and in nanoscience and technology, and the description and interpretation of experiments in these fields. Application areas are, among others, synthetic and natural supramolecular assemblies, liquid crystals, proteins, polymers and colloidal particles. Although predominantly focused on theory development, his research has led to three granted patents. Van der Schoot has been active in the field of theoretical virus physics for over ten years. He has, based on experimental data, developed formal models describing the design principles
