Bureau of Mines 201Title: Connecting Molecules and Forces with Rings and Loops Abstract: Animal cell shape is dictated by the actomyosin cytoskeleton, including the membrane-apposed cortex. The molecular parts list of the cortex is well-characterized, and included the dynamic F-actin polymers, myosin family motor proteins, and myriad non-motor crosslinkers that scaffold the cytoskeleton, the membrane, and regulatory proteins.…

Bureau of Mines 201Title: Photothermal Heating with Nanoparticles: Enhancing Electrical Conductivity in Composites and Water Vapor Formation in Hydrogels Abstract: Photothermal heating is the conversion of light into heat. When nanoparticles are embedded in materials, we are able to precisely control localized heating in a sample using photothermal heating of the nanoparticles. We use this heating in two areas…

Riddick 301 2401 Stinson Drive, Raleigh, NC, United StatesSpeaker: Anton Malko Title: Heralded Photons and Stimulated Emission Using Colloidal Semiconductor Quantum Shells Abstract: Spherically shaped semiconductor nanoplatelets, called quantum shells (QSs) have recently attracted considerable attention as they exhibit strongly suppressed Auger recombination, ultralong biexciton (BX) lifetimes and broad gain bandwidth. However, no applications that demonstrate true lasing action using QSs in optical cavity configurations have…

Bureau of Mines 201Title: Understanding the emergence of microbial collective behaviors Abstract: Groups of cells of all kinds work together as part of multicellular behaviors ranging from collective migration to development. These behaviors are coordinated at the level of single cells, where information about other cells and the environment are encoded in intracellular signaling dynamics that then drive…
