What will I learn?

Bionanotechnology holds exciting opportunities to bring high-impact advances in the field of bioengineering and medicine. Exquisite biological nanostructures are a natural means by which cells interact with one another and with the extracellular matrix. Bionanotechnology offers at the nanoscale (100,000 times smaller than the diameter of the average human hair) the ability to provide insight into the structural features of biological systems such as cell or tissue as well as to develop nanobiomaterials/medical devices for diagnostics, therapeutics and tissue regeneration. Ongoing work includes development nanoprobes that can characterize the nanoscale structure and function of cells design of multi-functional nanobiosystems for therapeutics, localized therapy delivery and for functional tissue repair/regeneration innovative techniques for chromosome sorting development of technologies to characterize the physio-chemical, structural and biological properties of nanostructured assemblies/materials design of artificial biomaterials through molecular synthesis and nanoscale self-assembly.
