Prerequisites: graduate standing in Chemistry or consent of instructor

Description: Explores topics in biological and organic chemistry relevant to the study of molecular recognition. Emphasizes the study of non-covalent forces in self-association and the properties of macromolecular constructs. Also involves the study of the synthetic organic and inorganic chemistry used to create these constructs. Students who present a seminar receive a letter grade; other students receive a Satisfactory (S) or No Credit (NC) grade. Course is repeatable. Hooley
