Joseph Brader

Joseph Brader is a Professor in the Department of Physics at the University of Fribourg, affiliated with the Faculty of Science and Medicine. His research spans theoretical and computational physics, focusing on soft matter, colloidal systems, and nonequilibrium dynamics.

Research interests include active matter, density functional theory, Brownian dynamics, and nonlinear rheology. His recent work explores confined fluids, superadiabatic forces, and Lorentz-force effects in colloidal systems.

Publication trends emphasize dynamical density functional theory, nonequilibrium phase behavior, and transport properties in porous composites. Key subfields involve hard-sphere systems, integral equations, and magnetic heat pumps.
