Using these materials, together with genetic and protein engineering tools, we tackle exciting challenges in nanotechnology, biotechnology and medicine. As curious engineers, our work has led us to dissect the DNA and genomic parts that encode for such material systems and their emergent biophysical properties at the DNA\/genome and protein levels. To learn new principles of self-assembly and stimuli-responsiveness, we take a bioinspired approach. We probe and manipulate self-assembly phenomena within cells and tissues. The resulting findings illuminate fundamental aspects of biology and serve as foundation to engineer advanced biomaterials.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\r\n\u003Cbr \/\u003E\r\n\u003Cem\u003EThe IBB Breakfast Club Seminar Series was started with the spirit of the Institute\u0027s interdisciplinary mission in mind to feature local IBB faculty member\u0027s research in a seminar format. Faculty are often asked to speak at other universities and conferences, but do not often present at their home institution - this seminar series is an attempt to close that gap. IBB Breakfast Club Seminars are open to anyone in the bio-community.\u003C\/em\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n","summary":"","format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EFelipe Quiroz, Ph.D. - Georgia Tech\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n","format":"limited_html"}],"field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"Felipe Quiroz, Ph.D. - Georgia Tech and Emory University"}],"uid":"27195","created_gmt":"2023-06-21 17:00:18","changed_gmt":"2023-12-04 18:48:09","author":"Colly Mitchell","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2024-01-09T08:30:00-05:00","event_time_end":"2024-01-09T09:30:00-05:00","event_time_end_last":"2024-01-09T09:30:00-05:00","gmt_time_start":"2024-01-09 13:30:00","gmt_time_end":"2024-01-09 14:30:00","gmt_time_end_last":"2024-01-09 14:30:00","rrule":null,"timezone":"America\/New_York"},"location":"Petit Biotech Building, 315 Ferst Drive, NW, Suddath Seminar Room 1128, Atlanta, GA 30332","extras":[],"related_links":[{"url":"https:\/\/research.gatech.edu\/bio\/events\/breakfast-club","title":"2023-2024 IBB Breakfast Club Seminar Series Schedule"}],"groups":[{"id":"1292","name":"Parker H.
