Recent discoveries from the lab of Michael Rubinstein, PhD, the Aleksander S. Vesic Distinguished Professor, could one day allow cystic fibrosis patients to breathe easier and perhaps live longer

The 8th International Soft Matter Conference saw nearly 500 participants from all over the world come together for the week-long event in Raleigh.

Between The Young Investigators Workshop and Duke Soft Matter Day, the summer saw collaborations in the field that spanned North Carolina ahead of ISMC 2024.

As the director of graduate studies for the program, Adrienne Stiff-Roberts has been instrumental in connecting faculty and students from various departments.

The team was recognized for showing how mechanochemical reactions can affect the strength of cross-linked polymer networks.

The 8th International Soft Matter Conference (ISMC) will be held in the Raleigh Convention Center this summer, marking the first time in the conference’s history that it will be held in the Americas. Duke’s Soft Matter Day, the Triangle Soft Matter Workshop, and the Young Investigator Workshop round out a year focused on elevating materials science.

Duke’s Shared Materials Instrumentation Facility (SMIF) has fostered regional and national collaboration in materials research for over 25 years.
