Research

  • *Nanoscale functional materials and devices for bio探花精选 applications*
    Nanostructured materials show great potential in the bio探花精选 field as they
    can serve as superior bioimaging contrast agents, diagnostic and therapeutic
    tools. Antibacterial nanosilver, plasmonic nanosized noble metals, quantum
    dots, nanophosphors and superparamagnetic nanoparticles constitute some of
    such functional materials.
    Here, we focus on aerosol manufacturing of smart nanoscale materials and
    devices and investigate the parameters that influence their properties,
    targeting superior performance in theranostics. Our approach is highly
    multidisciplinary combining expertise from material engineering,
    bioengineering and health sciences. This allows for the design and
    engineering of biomaterials that exhibit the desired functionality in
    applications ranging from diagnostics to therapeutic interventions.
    If you are a student and you like the above research topics, please do not
    hesitate to contact me. Research projects (e.g. master thesis) may be
    available!
