Terence Strick Editor & Author

David Bensimon and Vincent Croquette have been co-leaders of a group at the LPS-ENS that has been studying single DNA molecules and their interactions with proteins since 1991. Jean-François Allemand, Terence Strick and Xavier Michalet have been their students and collaborators ever since. They have jointly developed magnetic traps and have been studying various aspects of single molecule DNA/protein transactions. Since joining the lab of Professor S. Weiss at UCLA , Xavier Michalet has been focusing on the use of fluorescent and spectroscopic methods to study single biomolecules.
