Seminars


May 28 - Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry Seminar- Chang
  • Dr. Connie Chang from Harvard University will present a research seminar May 28 at 3:10 pm in the Byker Auditorium. The title of her seminar is "Droplet-Based Microfluidics for Biological Applications."

    Abstract: In this talk, I will present the use of droplet-based microfluidics for biological applications, such as for the creation of biomaterials, for the sensing of bacterial biofilms, and as an ultra high-throughput screening platform for the study of viral populations and virus evolution. Using microfluidic devices manufactured by soft-lithography methods, picoliter-sized aqueous drops in oil can be created, assayed, and sorted at kHz rates, allowing for highly sensitive and rapid detection of biological molecules or organisms.
May 30 - Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry Seminar- Arner
  • Dr Elias Arner will present a department seminar titled "Targeting selenocysteine - from thioredoxin reductase in cancer to imaging with positron emission tomography using Sel-tagged protein ligands." Dr. Arner is the guest of Edward Schmidt
