Conference: Experimental and Computational Advances in Single-Molecule Biomolecular Electronics

本次研讨会将汇集专注于研究单个生物分子和生物分子复合体中电荷传输的理论家和实验学家。研讨会将吸引来自不同学科的科学家交流思想，开展协同活动。主要目标包括讨论实验测量的最新进展，以及旨在了解生物分子系统中传输机制的实验。另一个目标是确定必须通过理论和模拟克服的挑战，以准确描述生物系统中的电荷传输。这些讨论将包括使用人工智能和机器学习等新的新兴技术。将讨论生物分子电子学的新应用，如生物传感器或生物分子电子学测量，作为单分子生物物理研究的工具。初级研究人员、博士后研究人员和少数族裔学生的参与将得到高度优先考虑。本次研讨会由生物科学局分子和细胞生物科学部的分子生物物理学计划资助。这一奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力优势和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为是值得支持的。

This symposium will bring together both theoreticians and experimentalists who focus on studying charge transport through individual biomolecules and biomolecular complexes. The symposium will bring scientists from different disciplines for exchange of ideas and develop synergistic activities. Main objectives include discussion of recent advances in experimental measurements and the experiments that aimed to the understanding of the transport mechanisms in biomolecular systems. Another objective is to determine challenges that must be overcome by theory and simulations to describe charge transport in biological systems accurately. These discussions will include the use of new emerging techniques, such as artificial intelligence and machine learning. New applications of biomolecular electronics, such as biosensors or biomolecular electronics measurements as tools for single-molecule biophysical studies will be discussed. Participation of junior researchers, postdoctoral researchers, and students of underrepresented minorities will be given a high priority. This symposium is funded by the Molecular Biophysics Program in the Division of Molecular and Cellular Biosciences in the Biological Sciences Directorate.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
