388 Thermophysical Properties of Biological Systems

Tuesday, November 5, 2013: 3:15 PM
Union Square 15 (Hilton)
Description:
The focus of this session is the study of complex processes in biological systems. Contributions from theoreticians, simulators, and experimentalists are welcome. Suggested topics include protein-protein interactions, concentration and crowding effects on biomolecular folding and stability, misfolding and aggregation events, interactions of proteins with interfaces, and self-assembly of biological molecules.
