"Hands-On" Workshop on Structural DNA Nanotechnology at
Urbana, IL
All-atom model of DNA origami built from its caDNAno blueprint (by Jejoong Yoo)
We are pleased to invite you to the next event of the "Hands-On" Computational Biophysics Workshop series dedicated to Structural DNA Nanotechnology. The workshop is organized by the NIH Center for Macromolecular Modeling and Bioinformatics of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and will be held at the Beckman Institute, in Urbana - IL, from 24-26 of September 2018.
This workshop will be presented by members of the NIH Center, and by invited global leaders and developers of the computational methods for design and simulation of self-assembled DNA nanostructures. The topics will include principles of DNA origami self-assembly, practical design of basic and advanced DNA origami structures using caDNAno, visualization of DNA origami structures using VMD, multi-resolution simulation of DNA origami structure and dynamics, and all-atom molecular dynamics simulations of self-assembled DNA systems. Morning lectures will introduce fundamental theory and concepts, while afternoon hands-on computer laboratory sessions will allow participants to gain practical knowledge in using the design and simulation software.
