JUAN M. RUSO is currently Associate Professor in the Department of Applied Physics at the University of Santiago de Compostela, Spain. He has contributed to more than 100 publications on a broad range of physical, chemical, and biophysics studies. His research interests include protein ligand interactions, thermal stabilization of protein, Phase behavior, and self-assembly processes in soft matter systems, biocompatible materials design, and nanocarrier design for targeted drug delivery. ÁNGEL PIÑEIRO is an IPP Research Fellow at the Department of Applied Physics of the University of Santiago de Compostela, Spain. His current research interests include the design and characterization of self-assembled systems as well as the study of macromolecules in solution, embedded in membranes or at interfaces. His work is mainly based on computational methods including multiscale molecular dynamics simulations and the development of software for the analysis of different experimental properties.
