A 3-year PhD scholarship is available to work on simulation methods to treat colloidal

particles that are flowing near, or are transported within fluid interfaces (L.

Botto et al., Soft Matter, 2012, 8, 9957-9971); the focus is on fluid

mechanical aspects coupled with physical-chemistry. For details: webspace.qmul.ac.uk/lbotto
