Modern medicine has benefited greatly from technological advances in instrumentation. The ability to probe and manipulate new aspects of biological function often provides unique information that can be used as the basis of new medical treatments. Recent advances in optical instrumentation and biochemical labelling has enabled the study of biological function at the single molecule level. This project proposes to develop new techniques in single molecule manipulation, to perform studies not easily addressable using current techniques. The proposed research will form the basis of an enabling technology for Australian researchers to make breakthroughs in biomedical research, potentially leading to improvements in healthcare.

现代医学从仪器的技术进步中获益匪浅。探测和操纵生物功能新方面的能力通常提供独特的信息，可用作新医学治疗的基础。光学仪器和生物化学标记的最新进展使得能够在单分子水平上研究生物功能。该项目旨在开发单分子操作的新技术，以进行使用当前技术不易解决的研究。这项拟议中的研究将为澳大利亚研究人员在生物医学研究方面取得突破奠定技术基础，从而可能改善医疗保健。
