Week 5: Measurement and Imaging

From a chemical point of view, proteins are by far the most structurally complex and functionally sophisticated molecules known.
--- Molecular Biology of the Cell, 5th

What about this week on Measurement and Imaging?

Evan Daugharty (founder of ReadCoor from George Church'lab at Harvard) gave us a overview of analytical tools for synthetic biology.
