Hello all!

Information bellow about our new workshop:
Quantum networks, which can transmit quantum information, such as qubits and entanglement, are coming into existence in the US, Europe, and Asia. In fact, a startup here in New York, Qunnect, is currently sending entangled photons through the fiber optic network under New York City.

We will be having a workshop on quantum networks on Thursday, May 4, and Friday, May 5, of this week in the Science Center (room 4102) at the CUNY Graduate Center. Information about the workshop and a schedule can be found here: https://itsatcuny.org/calendar/quantumnetworks . The talks will be live streamed over Zoom at

Multiscale Polyvalent Biosensing using DNA Nanotechnology & Electrochemistry



Dr. Philip S. Lukeman

Associate Professor

School of Liberal Arts and Sciences

St. John’s University, Queens, NY



Abstract:

We will describe here the utilization of DNA nanotechnology to construct three different electrochemical biosensor platforms that can:

Be used to detect a wide range of targets (DNA, proteins) by swapping independent, modular analyte binding domains and reporter domains

Detect 100 nm+ scale targets and discriminate intact target vs subunit binding

Utilize electron transfer rate as a measure of polyvalent binding

Title: Conformal Invariance of Lattice Models from Statistical Mechanics

Abstract: Many physical phenomena can be described by discrete random processes or discrete random configurations: Random walks describe molecular movement; the self-avoiding walk was introduced to describe the behavior of polymers; the Ising model is a model for ferromagnetism; percolation models transport in porous media. Rather surprisingly, the last three of these models have scaling limits (obtained by letting the lattice size tend to 0) that belong to a same one-parameter family of conformally invariant random curves, the Schramm-Loewner evolution. This stochastic process introduced in 1999 by Schramm has been at the center of many rigorous breakthroughs in statistical mechanics. This talk will be an overview of some of these.
