The list below shows both the soft matter theory meetings and the joint experimental-theory soft matter meetings at UPenn. During the semester, these meetings alternate on Mondays between DRL 2C8, 2.00-3.30pm (theory meetings) and the LRSM reading room, 12.00-1.30pm (joint meetings). At the joint meetings, two people (preferably one from an experimental group and one from a theoretical group) present some of their recent work in an informal manner, after which we have ample time for discussion. The theory meetings have one internal or guest speaker.
