On December 15th 2023, postdoctoral reseacher Barbara Pem held a public lecture organized by the Department of Organic Chemistry and Biochemistry titled "Organization and interactions of phospholipid bilayers as biomembrane models". In this lecture she presented the results of her computational research conducted during her two-year post-doc period in the Laboratory for Engineering of Biomembranes. In addition, she presented the results of two short-term research stays abroad, funded by RBI scholarships, during which she conducted experimental studies of lipid monolayers and lipid-nanoparticle complexes.
