RESEARCH
Our research efforts combine various interdisciplinary approaches to address the current limitations in clinical biomedical applications. To achieve this purpose, we use techniques to manipulate molecular-level interactions to design and synthesize materials with unique capabilities; for example: self-assembling nanoparticles for site-specific delivery platforms, the tracking of intracellular interactions using active cargo, and activated self-assembly strategies for disrupting malignant cells. A key aspect of our research is thus to harness nanomedicine for clinical translational applications.
