The nanoPROBE Lab
Jian Cui Lab
Jian’s team synthesizes novel classes of nanomaterials with unique chemical and optical properties. We aim to apply these materials towards the development of unconventional approaches to biological imaging and sensing.
Das Team von Jian synthetisiert neuartige Klassen von Nanomaterialien mit einzigartigen chemischen und optischen Eigenschaften. Unser Ziel ist es, diese Materialien für die Entwicklung innovativer Ansätze in der biologischen Bildgebung und Sensorik zu nutzen.
Forschungsbereich
Das Faszinierendste an Materialien im Nanobereich ist, dass bei Verringerung ihrer Abmessungen unterschiedliche physikalische Phänomene auftreten. Wir sind daran interessiert, diese einzigartigen Eigenschaften der nanoskopischen Welt zu nutzen, um ein neues Instrumentarium zu entwickeln. Dieses wird uns dabei helfen, biologische Systeme zu verstehen und möglicherweise sogar zu kontrollieren.
Wir sind ein vielfältiges Team von Forschern, die interdisziplinäre Fragen stellen und multidisziplinäre Ansätze verfolgen, in der Hoffnung, transdisziplinäre Ergebnisse zu erzielen.
