Abstract: Our research is focused on understanding and creating molecular devices and machines that can perform specific tasks as directed by users. We draw inspiration from natural macromolecular assemblies such as viruses and molecular motors and seek to implement similar principles in synthetic molecular machinery. We use both DNA origami and de-novo protein design in […]

Designer Nucleic Acid Architectures for Programmable Molecular Systems. My lab uses nature's design rules as inspiration to advance biomedical, energy-related, and other technological innovations through the use of self-assembling molecules and materials. We aim to create intelligent materials with better component controls at the atomic and molecular levels. Speciically, we are interested in designing bio-inspired […]
