Start 19:45:
People: Sarah, Svea, Praveen, Mari, Karen, Agata, Thomas, Fereshteh, Santiago, Varsha First presentation of old projects:

  • Praveen Presented Slovenia's old project: DNA origami add-ons, Zinc fingers: DNA specific can bind also proteins; site-specific functionalization of DNA origami. Is it possible to coat DNA Origami surfaces(with metals)? Nanolithography? Modification of single base pairs could be possible. It would be a nice idea to build a Diode by functionalizing a DNA origami.
  • Thomas will contact main supervisors. Next week Monday at 1 pm we meet Ralf and Stefan to talk about their possible projects/research.
  • Varsha contacted Prof. Büchner
  • Thomas wrote to Leonid Ionov (smart polymers)-> probable meeting next week on Thursday at 5 pm at IPF
  • Fereshteh Presented a Nanosaur for a special function (her idea);Environment is key -> Low Reynold's number. Reynolds number: Ratio of Inertial term to Viscosity term in Navier-Stokes Eq. Recommended book: Purcell et al: Life at Low Reynolds Number (1976)
  • Brainstorm-> Control what sth. is doing. ATP is used as source of energy, how can it be supplied in a controlled fashion? At least 3 center of masses are necessary to have a nonreciprocal motion which leads to a pure displacement, at low Reynolds number. Aim: Build a little nano-swimmer to act autonomously in the body.
  • Meeting with Dominik Kauert on Thursday at 4:30 pm in his office
  • Santiago Presented Technische Universität München TUM NanU Project The TU Munich people made it possible to bend DNA origami structures pictures of us will be taken on Thursday.
  • We talked about the lecture next Monday to officially present the Biomod Team.
End: 22:07
