Projektbeschreibung der*des Nominierenden

The Humboldt Award is granted to Professor Andelman for his pioneering work on the physics of soft condensed matter and biomimetic materials.With his ground breaking theories on the self-organisation of colloidal systems by interplay of entropic, electrostatic and dipolar interfacial forces he set a new standard of research in this field. His theory of wetting of solids by membranes stimulated by his cooperation with German groups provided new insights into the physical basis of cell adhesion and bioadhesion and stimulated research of this scientific field in Germany.
