The research spans multiple length scales, from the molecular design of peptides, polymers, and nanoscale assemblies to advanced biomaterials, biosensors, and biofabricated tissues. A common theme is the development of bioresponsive systems that dynamically adapt their structure and function in response to biological signals. These principles are applied to create innovative technologies for diagnostics, drug delivery, regenerative medicine, and advanced in vitro models for studying health and disease. Our work combines fundamental studies of molecular interactions and self-assembly with the development of translational technologies in close collaboration with clinicians, industry, and international research partners.
A long-term vision is to engineer adaptive materials that dynamically interact with biological systems by sensing, interpreting, and modulating biological processes, ultimately enabling functional molecular communication between synthetic materials and living tissues.
