The subject of our third OneChemistry workshop on April 23rd–24th in 2019 is “Molecular Machinery of Life.” Our goal is to link molecular sciences (including chemistry, biophysics, physics and engineering) towards addressing larger scale structure and function of biological processes.
Speakers:
Rommie E. Amaro, University of California San Diego, Computational Chemistry and Biophysics
“Predicting Chemistry in a Cellular Context”
Stephen Fried, Johns Hopkins University, Chemistry
“Engineering the Ribosome: Teaching One Old Molecular Machine New Tricks”
Rachel Green, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Biology
“High resolution ribosome profiling reveals translational responses to stress”
Martin H. W. Grubele, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, Chemistry
“Protein folding and interactions: in silico – in vitro – in cell – in vivo”
