Café Synthetique 'DNA: self assembly, origami & more'

Join us at October's Cafe Synthetique, for informal talks, discussion and pub snacks

This months' talks cover how synthetic DNA nanostructures can be designed to replicate the structure and function of biological molecules, and how DNA is used to build synthetic membrane-inserting channels.
