Covers the basics of polymer biophysics, including DNA conformation modeling and the Boltzmann principle, emphasizing the exponential decay of correlations between segments.
Delves into retooling the genetic code by expanding it beyond the standard amino acids, with a focus on eukaryotic mRNA translation and site-specific incorporation in fruit fly models.
Explores proximity-specific ribosome profiling and translational dynamics with high resolution, covering translation in different cells and the ER's role in protein synthesis.
