Subject: 18.09.24 "Hands-On" Workshop on Structural DNA Nanotechnology at Urbana, IL (Sept 24-26)
This workshop will be presented by members of the NIH Center, and by invited global leaders and developers of the computational methods for design and simulation of self-assembled DNA nanostructures. The topics will include principles of DNA origami self-assembly, practical design of basic and advanced DNA origami structures using caDNAno, visualization of DNA origami structures using VMD, multi-resolution simulation of DNA origami structure and dynamics, and all-atom molecular dynamics simulations of self- assembled DNA systems. Morning lectures will introduce fundamental theory and concepts, while afternoon hands-on computer laboratory sessions will allow participants to gain practical knowledge in using the design and simulation software. The workshop is designed for the users conducting research projects in the field of DNA nanostructure simulation and/or seeking to extend their expertise in modeling simulations. Enrollment is limited to 25 participants. Apply to attend at http://www.ks.uiuc.edu/Training/Workshop/Urbana2018c/NOTE THAT E-MAIL ADDRESSES HAVE BEEN MODIFIED!!!
