Research Focus

Design, synthesis, and characterization of inorganic nanoparticles (with a particular emphasis on chiral nanostructures) for biomedical applications, including strategies against antibiotic-resistant pathogens and improved drug delivery platforms. The laboratory also develops methods for capturing, isolating, and analyzing extracellular vesicles (EVs) to support biomarker discovery and diagnostic applications. Nanoparticle interactions with proteins, EVs, and cells are investigated using SEM, TEM, Raman spectroscopy, and LC-MS–based analyses.
