Current and recent talks
Response of molecular chains to tension, torque,
and environmental change:
-- DNA under tension and torque optical or magnetic tweezers),
-- polypeptides under tension (negative hydrophobic mismatch),
-- polypeptides near interface between polar and non-polar media,
-- statistically interacting particles,
-- particles representing extension, contraction, twist,
conformational change
