A Synthetic Electronic Nanopore for DNA Sequencing
and Stochastic Sensing
Davis Sneider, Aaron Choi, and Saifuddin Aijaz
With Mentors: Dr. David Wendell, Dr. Vasile Nistor, and Ms. Elizabeth Wurtzler
GoalsLearn and apply how nanopores can be used as
sensors
Learn how nanopores are helpful with sequencing
Publish a paper countering the position of the creator of nanopores we are using.
TasksAnalyze data using QuB
Paint lipid membranes
Use nanopores as sensors for Norovirus
Use nanopores for DNA sequencing method
Time Schedule Work on paper throughout, updating the
preliminary information as we go
Work on the PowerPoint throughout, adding important information and data as we go
Work on the poster in the last two weeks after summarizing our data and making findings
Learn to paint membranes, learn how to sense nanovirus, learn how to sequence DNA if time permits.
