Soft and Active Matter Group
Indian Institute of Technology Hyderabad
Indian Institute of Technology Hyderabad
We are an interdisciplinary group of researchers at the Indian Institute of Technology Hyderabad with a broad interest in soft and active matter. We regularly (~biweekly) meet to discuss research problems and recent advances in the area of soft and active matter.Â
We have recently organised HydSoft23, Hyderabad Soft Matter Day which attracted participations of researchers from Hyderabad region working in the area of soft and active matter.Â
We also organise online, and sometimes offline, Soft and Active Matter Seminar. Â
