Workshop on Design of DNA Origamito be held 26 April, 2010This proposal will support a day long workshop on design of DNA origami immediately prior to the 7th conference on the Foundations of Nanoscience (FNANO 2010).Intellectual MeritThe workshop is designed to outfit each participant with information and tools that will enable them to design DNA nanostructures using the templated DNA origami method. Participants will return to their home institutions equipped with software, DNA sequence information, experimental hints and tips, and experience with AFM imaging that will allow them to design, fabricate and image a test origami structure. Workshop participants will also have the opportunity to attend the 2010 FNANO meeting, which this year features a double track on self-assembled DNA nanostructures. Most of the main researchers in DNA origami (Nadrian Seeman, Paul Rothemund, William Shih, Ebbe Andersen, Eric Winfree, Satoshi Murata, Masayuki Endo, Akinori Kuzuya, Hao Yan, Chengde Mao, Thom LaBean) attend this meeting. Coupling the workshop with the conference will enable younger scientists (postdocs, grad students, and junior faculty) to interact professionally with many of the top researchers in DNA origami.Broader ImpactThe workshop will be open to up to 15 NSF-supported participants, including 5 graduate students, 5 postdocs, and 5 junior faculty members. The workshop will be publicized to attract a wide range of applicants, who will be selected by the conference and program chairs of FNANO. The chairs will choose participants who are relatively new to FNANO, who will increase the diversity of the conference attendees, and who are likely to actually put the workshop content to use in their research.

DNA折纸设计研讨会将于2010年4月26日举行。该提案将支持在第七届纳米科学基础会议（FNANO 2010）之前举办一天的DNA折纸设计研讨会。知识产权研讨会旨在为每位参与者提供信息和工具，使他们能够使用模板DNA折纸方法设计DNA纳米结构。参与者将返回他们的家乡机构配备了软件，DNA序列信息，实验提示和技巧，并与AFM成像的经验，这将使他们能够设计，制造和图像测试折纸结构。研讨会的参与者还将有机会参加2010年FNANO会议，今年的会议将讨论自组装DNA纳米结构。大多数DNA折纸的主要研究人员（Nadrian Seeman，Paul Rothemund，William Shih，Ebbe Andersen，Eric Winfree，Satoshi Murata，Masayuki Endo，Akinori Kuzuya，Hao Yan，Chengde Mao，Thom LaBean）参加了这次会议。将研讨会与会议相结合将使年轻的科学家（博士后，格拉德生和初级教师）能够与DNA折纸领域的许多顶级研究人员进行专业互动。更广泛的影响研讨会将向15名NSF支持的参与者开放，包括5名研究生，5名博士后和5名初级教师。该研讨会将被宣传，以吸引广泛的申请人，谁将由FNANO的会议和项目主席选择。主席将选择那些对FNANO相对较新的参与者，他们将增加会议与会者的多样性，并且他们可能会在他们的研究中实际使用研讨会的内容。
