 \section{Single Molecule Protein Folding Studies}
 \label{sec:single-molecule}
 
-The large size of proteins relative to simpler molecules imposes
-certain limitations on the information attainable from bulk
-measurements, because the macromolecules in a population can have
-diverse conformations and behaviors.  Bulk measurements average over
-these differences, producing excellent statistics for the mean, but
-making it difficult to understand the variation.  The individualized,
-and sometimes rare, behaviors of macromolecules can have important
-implications for their functions inside the cell.  Single molecule
-techniques, in which the macromolecules are studied one at a time,
-allow direct access to the variation within the population without
-averaging.  This provides important and complementary information
-about the functional mechanisms of several biological
-systems\citep{bustamante08}.

 Single molecule techniques provide an opportunity to study protein
 folding and unfolding at the level of a single molecule, where the
