    Tool for teaching the general effects of competition on co-infection.

  2. Biology of COVID-19 Attack on Epithelial Cells, understood from a Modeling and Simulation Perspective

    Online Presentations | 04 Feb 2021 | Contributor(s):: Paul Macklin

    n this session, we describe a community-driven effort to iteratively develop a multiscale, spatially-resolved open source model of SARS-CoV-2 dynamics and immune response in tissues.

  3. Selective Microbial Control in Drinking Water Systems Using Bacteriophages Conjugated with Superparamagnetic Nanoparticles

    Online Presentations | 12 Jan 2021 | Contributor(s):: Laurel Bingman, NEWT Center

    This whiteboard video is designed to engage K-12 students in high-level nanotechnology research. Bacteriophages have been studied for decades as a possible treatment for bacterial diseases. Now, scientists are trying to use them for the purpose of water treatment. Show students this...

  4. Understanding COVID-19 Infection, Immune Response, and Drug Therapy through Multiscale, Multicellular Modeling and Simulation

    Online Presentations | 10 Dec 2020 | Contributor(s):: T.J. Sego

    This workshop presents an open-source Python- and XML-scripted multiscale modeling and simulation framework of an epithelial tissue infected by a virus, a simplified cellular immune response and viral and immune-induced tissue damage and shows how to use it to model basic patterns of infection...

  5. Shape Changing Nanocontainers Tutorial

    Online Presentations | 22 Apr 2020 | Contributor(s):: Vikram Jadhao

    Course material companion materials for nanoparticle shape lab. Four files are associated with this course material: two video lectures, companion powerpoint slides, and a homework problem set.

  9. Nano*High: Nature's Nasty Nanomachines: How Viruses Work, and How We Can Stop Them

    Online Presentations | 25 Sep 2010 | Contributor(s):: Carolyn R. Bertozzi

    The birth and growth of nanotechnology is only a few decades old, whereas Nature has been building nano-machines for millennia. Viruses are marvels of natural nano-engineering, but can pose a problem for human health. To combat these nano-machines, scientists are turning to recent developments...
