Physics and Astronomy Colloquium
Tufts University
200 College Ave., Anderson Hall Room 206
"Inference in Biological Physics"
Phil Nelson
University of Pennsylvania
I'll discuss two recent experiments, in which knowing a little bit about
probability goes a long way in helping us to extract the meaning from
experiments. The first involves changepoint detection in single-molecule
studies of molecular motors. The second involves simultaneous activity
measurements on intact mammalian retina.
Refreshments served at 2:30 pm in Knipp Library, Robinson Hall, Room 251.
