Kristen's Presentation

Hi all,

My presentation this Tuesday will be on "How Nature Harvests Sunlight", looking in particular at the light-harvesting apparatus of purple bacteria. The main article I have focused on is Hu, X. and Schulten, K (1997) 'How Nature Harvests Sunlight', Physics Today, August 1997, p28 - 34. The UQ library has access, so this can be found by doing a quick search of Web of Science (or similar), or I have posted a link here.

I don't want to get too focused on the tiny details, especially since I know that there are those of you who aren't altogether comfortable with lots of quantum mechanics, so I'll be sticking mostly to concepts (in other words, don't get freaked out).

Kristen
