Welcome, The organizing committee is delighted to welcome you to Bordeaux-Mérignac, France, for the 29th Conference of the European Colloid and Interface Society (ECIS). Colloid and interface science is a vast and interdisciplinary field of research including physics, chemistry, biology, medicine, nano-science and allowing transfer from fundamentals to applications. Merignac, the most innovative city of the Bordeaux Metropole, hosts many companies from Aerospace Valley and is also attractive towards pharmaceutical industries specialized in bio-development and surgery. Merignac and Bordeaux belong to the Aquitaine Region which is very famous for air flight, vineyard, ocean sport… and enjoys a mild climate. We are really happy to welcome so many participants coming from all over the world and we really wish you a fruitful conference and a pleasant stay!

In the Debye Institute chemists and physicists work together on the subjects of interfaces and nano-materials. His groups research interests focuse on the development and use of colloidal model systems in both fundamental (e.g., crystallization, melting, glass transition) and applied self-assembly studies (e.g., electro-rheological fluids, electronic ink and photonic crystals). Alfons Van Blaaderen obtained his Masters in Chemistry in 1987 and his PhD degree in Physical Chemistry in 1992 at the Utrecht University (both cum laude, highest honor in the NL). Also in 1992 he was awarded the DSM price for ‘Chemistry and Technology’. In 1992 and 1993 he worked for 50% as a postdoc at the Utrecht University and studied Physics at the same university. Subsequently, he worked for almost two years as a postdoc at what was then AT&T Bell Laboratories (Murray Hill, NJ). Before his appointment in the Physics department as full professor in 1999 he worked in the Chemistry department at Utrecht University. He received in 2006 the Rhodia Prize from the European Colloid and Interface Science Society. In 2011 he received the Peter Debye Prize for his research on the borderline between Chemistry and Physics from the Edmond Hustinx foundation. In 2012 he received an EU ERC Advanced Researcher Grant.

Temperature remains the most extensively investigated physical stimulus due to its ease of application and monitoring. In this dissertation, a new class of thermally responsive ABC poly(ethylene oxide)-block-poly(N,N-diethylacrylamide)-block- poly(N,N-dibutylacrylamide) (PEO-b-PDEAm-b-PDBAm) triblock copolymers has been synthesized by reversible addition−fragmentation chain-transfer (RAFT) polymerization.
