Presenter William Shih, Harvard University William is overseeing an effort to apply Synthetic Biology approaches to the development of self-assembling DNA nanostructures and devices for use in biomedical applications. In addition to carrying genetic information, DNA is increasingly being explored for its use as a building material. This new process is called DNA origami because… Continue reading William Shih | Fully addressable microstructures self-assembled from crisscrossed DNA-origami slats
