Students register through their affiliated department; otherwise register for
CHEMENG 459. For specialists and non-specialists. Sponsored by the Stanford BioX Program. Three seminars per quarter address scientific and technical themes related to interdisciplinary approaches in bioengineering, medicine, and the chemical, physical, and biological sciences. Leading investigators from Stanford and the world present breakthroughs and endeavors that cut across core disciplines. Pre-seminars introduce basic concepts and background for non-experts. Registered students attend all pre-seminars; others welcome. See
http://biox.stanford.edu/courses/459.html. Recommended: basic mathematics, biology, chemistry, and physics.

CHEMENG 467: Physics of Biomacromolecules
Advanced topics in the equilibrium and dynamic behavior of biomacromolecules. Theoretical approaches addressed include path integral approaches to polymer Green function theory, polymer field theory, application of Smoluchowski and fractional Fokker Planck equations to biopolymer transport, and Brownian dynamics and Monte Carlo simulations. These methods will be applied to topics such as DNA/protein semiflexibility, DNA supercoiling, lyotropic polymer ordering, anomalous diffusion in crowded environments, motor-protein transport, and protein dynamics.
