Session: Engineering Biomolecules (2009 Annual Meeting)

Description:

This session invites contributions on novel methods for the engineering or biomolecules and the applications of these in therapeutics, diagnostics, sensors, and other applications. Fundamental experimental and computational studies on the structure and structure-function properties of engineered biomolecules are also welcome.
