Joint Nanoscience & Structural Biology Seminar: Wilhelm Huck, Radboud University Nijmegen

Dissipative systems showing signs of life Speaker: Wilhelm Huck Radboud University Nijmegen Abstract Complex networks of chemical reactions together define how life works. We are familiar with the metabolic networks studied in biochemistry, and in recent decades many regularly recurring network motifs have been uncovered that are responsible for much of the functional behaviour in

2019 CUNY Biophysics Symposium

This symposium brings together CUNY theorists and experimentalists in the expansive field of biophysics, giving us a chance to share recent research findings and discuss plans for future joint endeavors. We are pleased to welcome the three following keynote speakers: Qiang Cui, Professor of Chemistry, Boston University – “Exploring Membrane Remodeling by Protein and Nanoparticles”

Structural Biology Special Seminar: Lina M. Gonzalez, MIT, Voight Lab

Resilient Living Materials Built By Printing Bacterial Spores Speaker Lina M. Gonzalez Postdoctoral Associate, MIT, Voight Lab Abstract A route to advanced multifunctional materials is to embed them with living cells that can perform sensing, chemical production, energy scavenging, and actuation. A challenge in realizing this potential is that the conditions for keeping cells alive
