Seeing and sensing chaperone-mediated protein folding acceleration
Chaperones are central to protein folding, maintenance, and disease, but how and when they affect protein chains as remained difficult to study directly. Recently it has become possible to detect …
Chaperones are central to protein biogenesis, but their action at the ribosome remains poorly understood. A central complication is the highly dynamic nature of this process, which involves polypeptide synthesis, …
In this project you will couple tunable optical microcavities with nanostructured excitonic materials to achieve strong photon-photon interactions. You will use these interactions to investigate phase transitions of light, and …
