Scholarship and Biography

Our research focuses on the interdisciplinary frontier of materials chemistry--enzymatic noncovalent synthesis. We integrate the knowledge and techniques in chemistry, molecular cell biology, materials science, and nanotechnology to design new molecular biofunctional materials, including nanomaterials, for the exploration in biomedicine (e.g., molecular drug delivery, cancer therapy, biomedical diagnostics, and biomimetics), and other fundamental problems in nanoscience and biological science.
