Advances in Biomembranes and Lipid Self-Assembly,Volume 34,formerly titled Advances in Planar Lipid Bilayers and Liposomes, serves as a comprehensive platform for exploring cell membranes, lipid model membranes, and lipid self-assemblies across various scales, ranging from micro to nanoscale. Given the widespread prevalence of planar lipid bilayers in nature, this book delves into their utilization in formulating biomimetic model membranes and designing artificial dispersion of liposomes. The chapters encompass a range of topics, including:

Physical Properties of SOPC Lipid Membranes Containing Cholesterol: This chapter employs molecular dynamics simulation to investigate the dynamic behavior of cholesterol-containing SOPC lipid membranes. It sheds light on exciting membrane fluctuations, exceeding thermal stimulation, and their influence on bio-membrane adhesion.

Exciting Membrane Fluctuations: Beyond Thermal Stimulation: This chapter delves into the mechanisms underlying the generation of membrane fluctuations that surpass thermal energy. It explores the role of lipid composition, membrane curvature, and external factors in shaping these dynamic processes.

Fluctuations Shaping Bio-Membrane Adhesion: This chapter examines how membrane fluctuations contribute to the formation and strength of bio-membrane interactions. It discusses the role of lipid dynamics, protein-lipid interactions, and the influence of environmental factors on the stability and function of biological membranes.

Other Chapters: The book also includes chapters on various other topics related to biomembranes and lipid self-assembly, such as lipid-protein interactions, membrane-protein complex formation, and the application of lipid bilayers in drug delivery systems.

By providing a comprehensive overview of the latest research in these fields, Advances in Biomembranes and Lipid Self-Assembly,Volume 34, serves as a valuable resource for researchers, students, and professionals engaged in studying cell membranes, lipid model membranes, and lipid self-assemblies.
