Research
I am interested in understanding the dynamics of complex transport processes at the interface of nanomaterials and biological systems and using these properties to create novel, and useful functionality. Nanomaterials, which replicate some of the geometry and transport properties of biological building blocks represent a truly enabling capability in this area, and provide an unprecedented opportunity to control transport and signal transduction within functional bioelectronic interfaces. My research group builds these interfaces and studies the fundamental physical phenomena that enable transport, energy conversion, and signal transduction in nanobiomaterials. We currently are focussing on nanofluidic phenomena in carbon nanotube pores and poirins, building multifunctional bioelectyronic interfaces based ion silicon nanowire FET devices, and on exploring real-time dynamics of biomolecular assemblies on nanotermpates using high-speed atomic force microscopy.
