Our research is unified under the theme: Multiscale Biointerface Engineering for Next-Generation Therapeutics and Diagnostics, and is structured around three interrelated research themes.
Theme 1: Engineered Carbon Nanostructures
Developing chiral and functionalized carbon-based nanomaterials to enhance transmembrane transport, molecular sensing, and therapeutic activity.
Theme 2: Therapeutic Extracellular Vesicles
Engineering extracellular vesicles (EVs) for targeted gene and drug delivery and immune modulation in cancer and neurodegenerative diseases.
Theme 3: 3D Biomimetic Culture Platforms
Creating physiologically relevant 3D tissue models for high-content and high-throughput therapeutic screening and biomanufacturing applications.
Together, these themes support a cohesive and translational research framework aimed at solving critical challenges in nanomedicine, diagnostics, regenerative engineering, and sustainable biomanufacturing. By engineering biointerfaces across scales, we aim to generate mechanistic insights and deliver impactful technologies for human health.
