D., graduated from the Weizmann Institute of Science in Israel. Most of his scientific career (1995-2019) has been spent at Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL) where, over 24 years, he built several successful scientific programs. His interests span from bio-interfaces and soft-condensed systems to hard-condensed hetero-structures.<\/p>\n Until 2017 served as an adjunct professor at the Department of Chemical Engineering, University of California, Davis. Currently, he is a Research Professor in the Department of Chemical & Biological Engineering at the University of New Mexico, Albuquerque and Affiliated Professor at the University of Warsaw, Poland.<\/p>\n He published 202 peer-reviewed papers (h-factor 53\u202a, Jaroslaw Majewski – \u202aGoogle Scholar<\/a>) and gave an app. 200+ invited talks and over 200 other presentations. He is an elected fellow of the American Physical Society and the Neutron Scattering Society of America. He is a recipient of individual LANL\u2019s Director Distinguished Performance Award. He received several LANL Mentor and Defense Programs Awards of Excellence. Please see his full Resume for details.<\/p>\n From 2019 until March 2025, he served as a permanent Program Director in the Molecular and Cellular Biosciences at the National Science Foundation (NSF). He was responsible for the annual budget of app. 30-40 M$ per year. Currently he is on a sabbatical leave in the Department of Chemistry, University of Warsaw.<\/p>\n At NSF he served in several programs beyond core Molecular Biophysics solicitation. For example, NSF funded: the Center for High Energy X-Ray Sciences (CHEXS) at Cornell High Energy Synchrotron Source (CHESS), at Cornell University; the Compact X-ray Free Electron Laser (CXFEL) at Arizona State University; \u00a0the Center for High Resolution Neutron Scattering (CHRNS) at NIST Center for Neutron Research (NCNR) at the National Institute for Standards and Technology (NIST); ChemMatCARS beamline at the Advanced Photon Source at the Argonne National Laboratory; NSF-private partnership with the Simons Foundation to create the National Institute for Theory and Mathematics in Biology, and others. <\/a><\/p>\n Neutron scattering techniques offer uniquely powerful, non\u2011perturbative, and isotopically\u2011sensitive means to investigate biological and soft\u2011matter interfaces. In this presentation, Dr. Jaros\u0142aw Majewski will first introduce the core methodology behind neutron scattering, with emphasis on their ability to probe surface and interfacial structures under diverse environmental conditions\u2014such as variations in pH, temperature, and shear flow. He will then present selected case studies drawn from his recent work on biol- and soft matter related systems: (i) model lipid membranes, (ii) interactions between lipid membranes and proteins, and (iii) polymeric films. These examples will highlight how surface\u2011scattering methods can reveal structural organization, dynamic responses, and subtle interfacial changes in biologically and soft matter relevant systems. Through these cases, the talk aims to illustrate the versatility of neutron scattering in characterizing bio\u2011interfaces and their responses to external stimuli, ultimately underscoring their importance as tools in biophysical and soft\u2011matter research.<\/p>\n<\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n <\/div>[\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" [vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator color=”orange” border_width=”2″][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”2\/3″][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/3″][vc_single_image image=”185336″ img_size=”medium” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded”][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_separator color=”orange” border_width=”2″][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/4″][vc_single_image image=”202780″ img_size=”large” add_caption=”yes” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded”][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”3\/4″][\/vc_column][\/vc_row] […]<\/p>\n\n
