CAREER: Solubility of Embedding Molecules in Lipid Membrane Bilayers: The Role of Elastic Properties and Molecular Geometries

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

9733764 Longo The research portion of this career program is aimed at aiding in the design of bilayer systems including: biosensors, pore-forming systems, drug delivery, and antibiotics. The ultimate goal is an understanding of how to control the aggregation of membrane soluble molecules, control disruption of bilayer systems, and influence the function of membrane soluble molecules. The teaching plans incorporate two innovations: (1) a High School Chemistry Links Program; and (2) the development of a new course in Biochemical Manufacturing Plant Design. ***
