We don't have journal club this week. Our meeting starts
next monday afternoon. There is a seminar today, however,
from 2:30PM-, which you might be interested. Here is the
information:
PROBABILITY SEMINAR
Hong Qian (University of Washington)
THE MATHEMATICAL THEORY OF SINGLE MOLECULES AS A MECHANICAL ENGINE
Monday, October 2, 2:30 p.m.
Room: EEB 216 (This is the OLD EE building.)
A single molecule of a protein can move, along its designated track,
against external applied force in aqueous solution. This process
is the physical basis of the cellular movement which leads to
many aspect of biological motion, for example, muscle contraction
and wound healing. We will introduce this fascinating phenomenon
and its mathematical model in terms of a set of coupled diffusion
process. Some unsolved mathematical issues will be discussed.
