Protein Based Nanomaterials Symposium Support
Abstract
Biomaterials or bio-based materials, particularly those based on proteins, have become increasingly important as models for future materials development. Despite the interest and excitement in this field there have been very few meetings organized around this topic. There are meetings based a single protein family such as collagen or silk but very few with a broader scope. This symposium is designed to provide an overview of a number of current proteins being explored as protein based materials. The focus is on the basic research being done to understand these proteins and how they can become the basis for materials. We included researchers from both university and company laboratories to insure a broad overview. A book will be published from the proceedings of the symposium.
