Magnus Bergström

Magnus Bergström is a Senior Lecturer at Uppsala University in the Department of Medicinal Chemistry; Pharmaceutical physical chemistry. His research focuses on surfactant self-assembly, micelle and vesicle formation, and the thermodynamic and bending energetic principles governing these systems.

Research Interests:

• Colloid and Interface Science
• Physical Chemistry of surfactants and lipids
• Pharmaceutical nanocarriers (liposomes, micelles)
• Bending elasticity of surfactant layers
• Self-assembly in mixed surfactant systems
• Drug delivery systems and colloidal stability

Publications: His work spans theoretical and experimental studies on micellar growth, vesicle size control, and surfactant-polyelectrolyte interactions, with recent studies on ultrasmall unilamellar vesicles (2025), supramolecular amyloid structures (2024), and bile salt surfactant solubilization (2021).
