DESCRIPTION:Prof. Aleksandra Radenovic\, Laboratory of Nanoscale Biology (
 LBEN)- EPFL\nNew avenues of research in the field of single molecule exper
 iment were opened with the advent of solid state nano-pores. The major adv
 antage of solid‐state nano-pores over their biological counterparts is t
 hat they can be easily integrated into devices compatible with other detec
 tion schemes such as a single molecule optical detection and manipulation.
  Here I will discuss our recent advances in using nano-pore platform for i
 ts integration with 2D materials.\nRecently\, glass nano-capillaries have 
 been put forward as alternatives to nano-pores since their fabrication is 
 rapid and inexpensive. Glass nanocapillaries are fabricated using a laser 
 pipette puller next they are placed under a scanning electron microscope b
 eam the size and shape of nano-capillaries is adjusted to appropriate size
 . In this talk I will address comparative advantages of both pore types.
