Festival of Biologics Day 3 @ 11:30

A High-Throughput Validation Approach for Engineered Nanopore Sensors

  • In this talk, I will discuss a new class of nanopore sensors for probing single proteins beyond the fundamental limit of detection within their interior. 
  • I will show an experimental strategy to address numerous challenges in utilizing these nanopore sensors.
  • This experimental design includes single-molecule and bulk-phase protein detection modalities.
  • Nanopore and nanodisc technologies are paired to produce new sensing nanostructures that can be integrated into highly sensitive optical and electrical platforms.
  • This work forms a fundamental basis for evaluating engineered nanopores for protein analytics.
