Examples ran ge from protein superstructures in bacteria to bands in axons to details o f the shapes of amyloid fibrils\, cell surface sugars\, and much more. Cur rent methods development research addresses ways to extract more informati on from each single molecule such as 3D position and orientation\, and to assure not only precision\, but also accuracy. Low temperature single-mole cule imaging can be combined with cryo-electron microscopy\, too. Still\, it is worth noting that in spite of all the interest in super-resolution m icroscopy of extended structures\, even in the “conventional” single-molec ule tracking regime where the motions of individual biomolecules are recor ded in cellular environments\, much can be learned. Combining super-resolu tion imaging of a static structure with 3D tracking of other biomolecules provides a powerful view of cellular dynamics.\n\nBio:\n\nWilliam Esco Moe rner (born June 24\, 1953) is an American physical chemist and chemical ph ysicist with current work in the biophysics and imaging of single molecule s. He is credited with achieving the first optical detection and spectrosc opy of a single molecule in condensed phases\, along with his postdoc\, Lo thar Kador. Optical study of single molecules has subsequently become a wi dely used single-molecule experiment in chemistry\, physics and biology. I n 2014\, he was awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry.\n DTSTART:20190924T170000Z DTEND:20190924T183000Z LOCATION:Room 10\, Maass Chemistry Building\, CA\, QC\, Montreal\, H3A 0B8\ , 801 rue Sherbrooke Ouest SUMMARY:J.T.
