Class Objectives
/Class Outline |
This lecture will be performed by Prof. Taro Toyota (The Univ. of Tokyo). In this course, students will learn physicochemical properties of gas-liquid interface. liquid-liquid interface, and lipid membrane at molecular level. The course also covers experimental models concerning the origins of life from the perspective of interface and colloid chemistry. |
