Polygonal Origami and DNA Origami Barcodes

I will present our recent work on ‘3D-printing’ DNA origami wireframe structures, a method that allows full computer aided design and provides a way to make origami more accessible to experiments in physiological salt conditions. I will also present work in progress to create libraries of optical nano-barcodes for use in sequencing experiments to track mRNA expression in tissue.
