Gold Nanoparticle Conjugation with A2 Protein in VLP for Symmetrical Alignment

by

Matthew Burnham and Dr. Brad Bundy, Department of Chemical Engineering A Virus-like Particle (VLP) is a nanostructure composed of many coat proteins. They differ from real viruses in that they are synthesized to be non-infectious. VLPs have many useful applications in vaccines, drug delivery, gene therapy, and material science1. Last year, I attempted to create […]

New Capabilities in Large-scale Models in Computational Biology

by

Casey Abbott and Dr. John Hedengren, Department of Chemical Engineering Advances in biomedical research have lead to an increase of experimental data to be interpreted in the context of reaction pathways, molecular transport, and population dynamics. Kinetic modeling is one way employed to interpret this data and is used in the pharmaceutical industry in developing […]
