Temperature changes at electrode surfaces
Measuring temperature at the interface can be a tough nut to crack. Using electrochemical techniques, I propose that we can use a combination of methods to sense temperature changes at the surface within fractions of a degree.
DNA folding around a molecule
Theoretically, we should be able to determine which DNA residues would interact with the different functional groups on a molecule. I propose that you could use a folding software to determine the orientation of the hydrogen bonds that form between a DNA sequence and an arbitrary molecule.
