报告摘要：

The Information Age transformed our lives but it has had surprisingly little impact on the way chemical information is acquired, analyzed and communicated. Sensor systems are poised to change this situation by providing rapid access to chemical information. This access will be enabled by technological advances from various fields: biology enables the synthesis, design and discovery of molecular recognition elements as well as the generation of cell-based signal processors; physics and chemistry are providing nano-components that facilitate the transmission and transduction of signals rich with chemical information; microfabrication is yielding sensors capable of receiving these signals through various modalities; and signal processing analysis enhances the extraction of chemical information. Our broad goal is to create sensor systems that can rapidly access complex chemical information and provide outputs as either global signature patterns or signals specific to target compounds-of-interest. Integral to this goal are the use of (i) electrochemistry to interactively probe for chemical information; and (ii) information processing to extract information from complex signals. Wereview recent research on thus use of electrochemical reverse engineering approaches to extract chemically-based information.

报告人简介：

Professor Gregory F. Paynereceived his B.S./M.S degrees from Cornell University and his Ph.D. from The University of Michigan. He returned to Cornell for post-doctoral study with Michael Shuler. In 1986 Prof. Payne joined the faculty of the University of Maryland where he is a Professor jointly-appointed in the Institute for Bioscience and Biotechnology Research and the Fischell Department of Bioengineering. His research is focused on biofabrication – the use of biological materials and mechanisms to confer structure and function to materials. Dr. Payne has several active collaborations with China where he is a Guest Professor at Wuhan University and South China University of Technology, and also a Chair Professor at East China University of Science and Technology.
