公開セミナー


講師 シンガポール国立大学助教授 Dr. Lim Chwee Teck氏
題目 生物材料と生物構造のナノメカニックス
(Nanomechanics of Biological Structure & Biomaterials)
日時 2004年1月7日(水) 14:00〜15:30
場所 生産技術研究所・第一会議室(Dw-601)
講演要旨 The human body is constantly exposed to physical stresses and strains throughout life. However, these physical interactions can occur not only at the musculoskeletal, but also cellular and molecular levels, and can directly affect the health and function of the human body. With the recent developments in biomechanics and technology, it is now possible to study and quantify these mechanical influences on biological structures as small as cells and biomolecules. Here, we seek to correlate the structures of cells and biomolecules to their mechanical properties and physiological functions by investigating the mechanics governing their biophysical interactions. It is hope that through this study, one can obtain important information on their natural structure-property-function relationship, gain further insight into important physiological functions, and establish possible connections to human diseases such as malaria. This talk will also highlight some of the challenges and opportunities in the use of innovative experimental techniques to study the mechanics of cells and biomolecules as well as nanoscale biomaterials.
