Research in DNA computing and molecular programming draws together mathematics, computer science, physics, chemistry, biology, and nanotechnology to address the analysis, design, and synthesis of information-based molecular systems. This annual meeting is the premiere forum where scientists with diverse backgrounds come together with the common purpose of using interdisciplinary approaches to advance molecular computation. Continuing this tradition, the 23rd International Conference on DNA Computing and Molecular Programming (DNA23), under the auspices of the International Society for Nanoscale Science, Computation, and Engineering (ISNSCE), will focus on the most recent experimental and theoretical results that promise the greatest impact. In addition, this conference will have special sessions on how to advance nanotechnology education, and how learning about DNA computing can provide students with deeper insights in multiple disciplines.
Papers and presentations are sought in all areas that relate to biomolecular computing, including, but not restricted to: algorithms and models for computation on biomolecular systems; computational processes in vitro and in vivo; molecular switches, gates, devices, and circuits; molecular folding and self-assembly of nanostructures; analysis and theoretical models of laboratory techniques; molecular motors and molecular robotics; studies of fault-tolerance and error correction; software tools for analysis, simulation, and design; synthetic biology and in vitro evolution; applications in engineering, physics, chemistry, biology
