Semiconductor quantum dots have a vast array of applications: as fluorescent labels in biological systems, as physical or chemical sensors, as components in photovoltaic technology, and in display devices. An attribute of nearly every quantum dot ...
Nucleic acids are highly integrated into molecular biology and exhibit very interesting character. They have immense engineering potential to improve human health and influence molecular systems. Consequently, these biopolymers are the quintessent...
Bacteria play a major role in our health and wellbeing. The microbe-host interaction is often mediated by sugar polymers at the cell surface. An incredibly diverse amount of glycan variation exists throughout these structures, which makes identifi...
Chronic diseases like cancer are characterized by complex interactions between multiple pathways leading to treatment resistance and invasiveness. Repeated cycles of cytotoxic monotherapies are susceptible to drug resistance induced by the upregul...
Harvesting the sun’s energy at a high efficiency and low cost is a vital step towards replacing fossil fuels. Colloidal quantum dots (QDs) are promising materials that have great potential for solar applications due to their size dependent optical...
Nucleic acids (DNA and RNA) are ubiquitous biomolecules found throughout all living organisms. They can act as genetic information storage and messengers, enzymes, molecular switches, and much more. Although DNA is used almost exclusively for its ...
