Timeline

1955

Rudolf Podgornik (born August 27, 1955 in Ljubljana, Yugoslavia) is a physicist.

His fields of research are: physics of soft matter, physics of Coulomb fluids, physics of macromolecular interactions, Lifshitz theory of Casimir - van der Waals dispersion interaction, Casimir effect, physics of membranes, polymers and polyelectrolytes and physics of DNA, RNA and viruses.

Podgornik and coworkers discovered the line hexatic phase in the phase diagram of the concentrated long fragment DNA solutions.

The line hexatic mesophase appears to be the preferred packing form of long DNA in bacteriophages.

1986

In 1986-1989 he was awarded the 'Fogarty fellowship', at the Laboratory of Structural Biology, Division of Computer Research and Technology, 'National Institutes of Health, Bethesda'.

1992

In 1992 he received a postdoctoral fellowship of the Swedish Research Council at Physical Chemistry 2 of the 'Chemical Center (Kemicentrum) at Lund University'.

1995

In 1995 he was the recipient of the Division of computer research and technology Director's award for "recognition and appreciation of special achievement" ('National Institutes of Health, Bethesda').
