Comprehensive Physical Chemistry

To those who are interested in joining this group as graduate students:

Please fill your discipline as Chemical Biology and the research directions as Single Bio-Molecule Detection or Bio-Molecule Recognition in your application form. The research needs knowledge on physical chemistry (especially on chemical dynamics/kinetics). You are encouraged to join our group if you are fond of the above fields.

You may read the following papers if you wish to get certain background on our research from the literature:

Peter V. Cornish and Taekjip Ha, ACS Chem. Biol. 2007, 2, 53. A survey of single-molecule techniques in chemical biology.
