Jean Dreyfus Lectureship: ‘Single Molecule Views of Nature’s Nanomachines’
Thursday, April 13, 2023, 3:30 – 5 p.m.
Did you know that proteins are nano-scale machines that help us think, dance, and keep the threat of cancer at bay? Did you know that biology is a new research frontier for physical scientists? In this talk, Taekjip Ha, a professor at Johns Hopkins University, will discuss how biophysicists are using light-based tools to poke and examine nature’s nano-machines, one molecule at a time, uncovering the amazing acrobatic abilities that are essential for all forms of life.
