SUMMARY:Physics and Astronomy Colloquium – Dr. Wesley P. Wong
LOCATION:Online
DESCRIPTION:The Department of Physics and Astronomy invites you to a colloquium featuring Dr. Wesley P. Wong, Wyss Institute for Biologically Inspired Engineering, Harvard University and Boston Children's Hospital. Dr. Wong will present his talk, “Mechanical Force in Nanoscale Biology”, Thursday, November 19 at 4:10 pm via Zoom.\n\nhttps://wsu.zoom.us/j/91067075085?pwd=RUZtZnhEVTUrcFoxM0tOL01iODRtZz09 \n\nMeeting ID: 910 6707 5085\n\nPasscode: PhysAstro\n\nAbstract: Mechanical force plays a critical role in regulating many aspects of biological function and structure, particularly at the nanoscale. My research group develops and applies methods in single‐molecule manipulation to understand the force‐dependent dynamics of biological interactions. I will present some methods that we are developing, including massively parallel single‐molecule force measurements using centrifugal force, and nanoscale devices built using DNA origami, and demonstrate how these approaches can bring new insights into biological processes such as blood clotting and hearing.\n\nphysics.wsu.edu/colloquium
