Scientific Internship: Designing Cytolinkers to Understand the Cell’s Mechanics from the Bottom Up
In this project the student will express and prepare purpose-designed recombinant Plectins, a class of protein that brings connectivity to the filamentous proteins of the cytoskeleton. Eukaryotic cells rely on …

Scientific Internship: Controlling nanomechanical motion through efficient optical measurements
In this project, you will seek to explore quantum mechanics with macroscopic mechanical systems, by performing the most sensitive possible measurements of their motion. The Photonic Forces group studies special …
