Abstract
Molecular communication (MC) engineering is an emerging field inspired by the ubiquitous use of chemical signals in cell biology as information carriers. The field integrates communications theory, signal processing, and biophysics to model fluid signal propagation as a signaling interface with living cells. Molecular communication is a promising approach for interdisciplinary applications requiring communication between cells and with other microscale devices. This seminar will introduce the field of MC, summarize our contributions, and share our on-going work with collaborators in different fields to apply MC techniques to practical systems including cancer spheroids, bacterial biofilms, transport in neurons, and particle exchange at the ocean surface
Thank you,
Presented by Department of Biochemistry
