Colloquium Series

Date:  Tuesday, April 16, 2013
Location:  Forum Hall, Palmer Commons (4th floor) (4:30 PM to 5:30 PM)

Title:  Mathematics of Protein Folding

Abstract:   Learning methods in recent science are used to create a geometry on spaces of amino acid sequences. This geometry is used to study immunology, in particular in the peptide binding problem. Then these ideas are used to obtain new results in protein folding.
