A scientific revolution is happening at the smallest of scales—one where we fold DNA, the molecule of life, into intricate nanoscale shapes. This field, called DNA origami, turns DNA into a programmable building material, allowing us to craft structures just billionths of a meter in size with astonishing precision. In this talk, we’ll explore this technique that ‘folds’ DNA like nanoscale paper and discuss its strengths, limitations, and groundbreaking applications that are reshaping fields from medicine to electronics.
Town Talks will be held on Tuesdays at the Telluride Conference Center in Mountain Village June 3 to August 12 (with the exception of July 1). Doors open at 6 pm and the program starts at 6:30 pm. Free and open to the public.
