Boise State Research Professor Honored at International Meeting on DNA Computing and Molecular Programming

Bernard Yurke, a research professor in the College of Engineering, was awarded the 2009 Tulip Award at the 15th International Meeting on DNA Computing and Molecular Programming held in June at the University of Arkansas.
Under the auspices of the International Society for Nanoscale Science, Computation and Engineering, the annual conference is a platform for leading researchers in computer science, mathematics, chemistry, physics, molecular biology and nanotechnology to present significant results and build interdisciplinary projects. It began in 1995 after the publication of landmark work by Leonard Adleman, a theoretical computer scientist who opened the door to the relatively new field of DNA computing. | more
