Welcome to the Website of the

24^th International Liquid Crystal Conference

ILCC 2012

August 19^th - 24^th 2012, Mainz, Germany

The mission of this biannual conference is to bring together the scientific community working in the interdisciplinary field of Liquid Crystals, or mesophases in the broader sense. This community ranges from classical synthetic chemistry to theoretical physics, from structural biology to engineering applications, and is linked by the interest in various aspects of soft matter. Liquid Crystals are nowadays almost omnipresent in many, very different fields of science and this conference will provide a common platform for demonstrating and discussing new developments.

Rudolf Zentel, University of Mainz (chairman)
Klaus Muellen, Max Planck Institute for Polymer Research (co-chairman)
Harald Pleiner, Max Planck Institute for Polymer Research (co-chairman)
