Research Project:
This project aims to leverage bio-assembled nanostructures in a scalable, integrated platform to sense chemicals or biomolecules relevant to industry needs.
Project Description:
The focus of this project is to characterize the proteins associated with bio-assembled nanostructures, which will provide a basis for functionalization to target chemicals or biomolecules relevant to industrial needs. Subsequently, a suitable optical detection approach will be developed for rapid detection.
