  1. 3608. (I) Computer Simulations of Modified Nucleic Acids: From Biomolecular Structure to Chemical Reactivity
    Prof. Stacey Wetmore (University of Lethbridge)
    20/06/2023, 10:45
    Symposia Day (DPMB/DCMMP - DPMB/DPMCM) - Soft Matter and Biological and Physics | Matière molle et physique biologique
    Invited Speaker / Conférencier(ère) invité(e)

    Nucleic acids are the most basic molecules of life, being tasked with storing and transmitting genetic information in all living organisms. Both DNA and RNA are composed of fundamental building blocks that each include a nucleobase (A, G, C, T/U), sugar ([deoxy]ribose), and phosphate moiety. To enhance nucleic acid programmability and stability, and aid the formation of functional 3D shapes,...

  2. 3785. (G*) Bio-Inspired Azobenzene Photoswitches as a Novel Platform for Optical Oxygen Sensing
    Coral Hillel (York University)

    Symposia Day (DPMB/DCMMP - DPMB/DPMCM) - Soft Matter and Biological and Physics | Matière molle et physique biologique
    Oral Competition (Graduate Student) / Compétition orale (Étudiant(e) du 2e ou 3e cycle)

    Hypoxia is a characteristic pathophysiological property of advanced solid tumours which influences aggressiveness and resistance to treatment. Real-time measurement of tumour oxygenation is thus vital for stratifying treatment plans by hypoxic severity and monitoring variations in partial pressure of oxygen (pO$_2$) caused by high energy X-ray and other photonic therapies. Azobenzene...

  3. 3852. (I) Shaping structures
    Dr Greg van Anders (Queen's University)
    20/06/2023, 11:40
    Symposia Day (DPMB/DCMMP - DPMB/DPMCM) - Soft Matter and Biological and Physics | Matière molle et physique biologique
    Invited Speaker / Conférencier(ère) invité(e)

    Understanding and controlling structural organization mechanisms is a key challenge in producing synthetic materials that mimic the complexity seen in organisms. This talk will present recent advances in controlling the local organization of colloidal building blocks, and a "pre-assembly" approach to produce hierarchically-structured materials.
