BioNano Workshop, January 2005, Lenzerheide

In January 2005, 38 scientists from the NCCR Nanoscale Science and the UK meet for a Bio Nano Workshop in Lenzerheide, Switzerland. They exchanged their experience and thoughts on:

Structure and nanomechanics of biological molecules
Biological mechanical sensors
Chemical and biological cantilever sensors
Biosensors and bioelectronics
Growth, patterning and probing of biomolecules
Theory and modelling of tip-sample interactions

During the three days meeting all participants enjoyed the open and stimulating atmosphere, the lively discussions on science, the perfect weather and some fast ski-runs.
