报告地点:唐敖庆楼 408 会议室
报告人:美国科罗拉多大学 Thomas Perkins 教授
报告人简介:
教育背景
· A.B. in Physics, Harvard University, magna cum laude
· Ph.D. in Physics, Stanford University, thesis advisor: Steve Chu, 1997
· Post-doctoral work at Princeton and Stanford, in the group of Steve Block
Research and Teaching Interests:
Prof. Perkins’ research focuses on single molecule measurements of biological systems. One outstanding question is: how do motor proteins transduce chemical energy into physical motion? Another is: how does the structure and dynamics of membrane proteins affect their functions? They specialize in developing and applying high precision measurements using optical traps and atomic force microscopes to answer these and other interesting questions.
