Fall ’25 Biochem Seminar: Associate Professor Rupal Gupta

Structure, Dynamics and Assembly of Human Antimicrobial Protein Antimicrobial proteins in humans sequester zinc to curtail infection. Although well established as key components of the immune response, the mechanisms of action of these proteins, such as S100A12, in the inflammatory pathway is not well understood. In this talk, I will present our work on biophysical

Photonics Initiative Seminar: Igor Aharonovich

Dr. Igor Aharonovich, University of Technology Sydney Quantum Technologies with Hexagonal Boron Nitride Abstract - Engineering robust, solid‐state quantum systems is amongst the most pressing challenges to realise scalable quantum photonic circuitry. In recent years, quantum emitters in hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) have emerged as fascinating candidates for realisation of room temperature quantum technologies with
