Assistant Professor of Physics Ben Evans and a team of researchers, known as "The Evans Lab," presented at the 57th Annual Meeting of the Biophysical Society in Philadelphia, Pa., Feb. 2-6.
The meeting is the largest annual international gathering of scientists in biophysics and related fields, with over 5800 attendees. The group presented their latest results:
Willem Prins, in Biosensors: “Fabrication of surface-attached magnetic post arrays for biosensing applications”
Ali Deatsch, in Micro and Nanotechnology: “Effect of concentration on heating efficiency of magnetic nanoparticles for application in magnetic hyperthermia”
Julie Ronecker, in Micro and Nanotechnology: “Ligand-targeted binding of a novel silicone magnetic microsphere”
Mike Berg, in Intracellular Transport: “Biomimetic cilia as a model ependymal cilia”
Ben Evans, in Molecular Mechanics and Force Spectroscopy: “Synthesis of functionalized microspheres with high magnetic concentration for microscale force application”
Travel was made possible by the Lumen program and the A.L. Hook professorship.
