The Royal Society of Chemistry journal Soft Matter is pleased to announce an open call for the themed collection “Colloidal dynamics, interactions and rheology”!The collection aims to collect outstanding contributions in the areas of colloidal stability, dynamics under external fields, and the behaviour of complex colloidal dispersions. We welcome experimental, theoretical, and computational studies that advance our understanding of colloidal systems, highlighting topics such as phase behaviour, non-equilibrium dynamics, and the interplay between colloidal particles and their surrounding medium, as well as the development of advanced optical and mechanical tools to probe soft matter. The collection is dedicated to the memory of Prof. Dr. Stefan Egelhaaf (HHU Düsseldorf), whose work in soft matter and in particular in the colloidal domain was both pioneering and influential.This themed collection is Guest Edited by:
Professor Roberto Cerbino(University of Vienna, 🇦🇹 Austria)
Professor Matthias Karg (Heinrich-Heine-Universität, 🇩🇪 Germany)
Professor Hartmut Löwen (Heinrich-Heine-Universität, 🇩🇪 Germany)
Professor George Petekidis(IESL-FORTH, 🇬🇷 Greece)
Professor Emanuela Zaccarelli (CNR Institute of Complex Systems, 🇮🇹 Italy)
Submissions to the journal should fit within the scope of Soft Matter and will undergo the normal initial assessment and peer review processes in line with the journal’s high standards, managed by the journal editors. Please see the journal’s website for more information on the journal scope, standards, article types and author guidelines.

If you would like to contribute to this themed collection, you can submit your article directly through the journal’s online submission service. Please add a “note to the editor” in the submission form when uploading your files to say that this is a contribution to the themed collection Colloidal dynamics, interactions and rheology. The Editorial Office reserves the right to check suitability of submissions in relation to the scope of the collection, and inclusion of accepted articles in the final themed collection is not guaranteed.
