The biophysics of polyelectrolyte translocation process will be discussed using concepts from polyelectrolyte physics and electrophysiology, against a background of single-molecule experiments. Specifically, the capture and threading of DNA/RNA and proteins through alpha-hemolysin channels and solid-state nanopores under an external electric field, and DNA ejection in bacteriophages will be discussed..<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='text-align:justify'><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><b><span style='font-size:14.0pt'><o:p> </o:p></span></b></p><p class=MsoNormal><b><span style='font-size:14.0pt'>We look forward to meeting you at the “Kolokvij na IJS”!<o:p></o:p></span></b></p><p class=MsoNormal align=center style='text-align:center'><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p></div></body></html>
