Nanosystems Biology
Online Presentations | 10 Sep 2004 | Contributor(s): James R. Heath | 2722 users
As we enter the 21st century, we stand at a major inflection point for biology and medicine-the way we view and practice these disciplines is changing profoundly. These changes are being driven by systems biology, a new approach to biology, and which will increasingly transform medicine from...

DNA Charge Motion: Regimes and Behaviors
Online Presentations | 28 Jul 2005 | Contributor(s): Mark Ratner | 446 users
Because DNA is a quasi-one-dimensional species, and because each base is a pi-type chromphore, it was long ago suggested that DNA could conduct electricity. This has become a widely investigated area, and remains of interest for fundamental science and for applications. We will discuss a very...

Nanoparticle Synthesis and Assembly for Biological Sensing
Online Presentations | 25 Oct 2005 | Contributor(s): Gil Lee | 3724 users
Nanoparticles have unique physical and chemical properties that make them very useful for biological and chemical sensing. For example, colloidal gold has been used as an optical transducer for antibody based sensing for over twenty years and is the basis for a many of the point-of-use diagnostic...

Geometry of Diffusion and the Performance Limits of Nanobiosensors
Online Presentations | 05 Dec 2006 | Contributor(s): Muhammad A. Alam, Pradeep Ramachandran Nair | 2056 users
This presentation demonstrates how the classical diffusion-capture (D-C) model has improved sensor performance, since the D-C model is a "geometry of diffusion" rather than a "geometry of electrostatics." A scaling law based on D-C is also posited; the scaling law resolves many classical puzzles...

Practical Introduction to the BioMOCA Suite
Online Presentations | 23 Apr 2008 | Contributor(s): David Papke | 918 users
In this presentation, I describe how to use the online BioMOCA Suite. I explain how to prepare the .pqr input protein structure from a .pdb structure. I then explain in detail how to use each of the four subtools in the BioMOCA Suite.I do not cover in detail how the BioMOCA code works. If you are...
