0744040 KeNanomaterials and their implication in future scientific discovery are rapidly reshaping the landscape of modern science and technology. Therefore, the research goal is to understand the interaction of carbon nanomaterials with biomolecules, cells, and the whole organism. New educational plans are proposed for establishing a biophysical nanoscience curriculum at Clemson University, and are complementary to fulfilling the research plan. Establishing the proposed new thrust of biophysical nanoscience is driven by three critical needs: the need to understand the fate, transport, modification, and accumulation of nanoparticles in biological and ecological systems, the need to develop new strategies and methodologies to address the challenges of safe nanotechnology, and the need to update the physics curriculum and providemultidisciplinary education for undergraduate and graduate students at Clemson University in the EPSCoR state of South Carolina. This proposed new thrust utilizes the established strength at Clemson in nanoscience, materials, and biophysics, and will foster collaboration opportunities in accordance with the priority areas of major funding agencies

0744040种Ke纳米材料及其在未来科学发现中的意义正在迅速重塑现代科学技术的面貌。因此，研究的目标是了解碳纳米材料与生物分子、细胞和整个生物体的相互作用。为在克莱姆森大学设立生物物理纳米科学课程提出了新的教育计划，并对完成研究计划起到了补充作用。建立拟议的生物物理纳米科学的新推动力是由三个关键需求驱动的：需要了解纳米颗粒在生物和生态系统中的命运、运输、修饰和积累，需要开发新的战略和方法来应对安全纳米技术的挑战，以及需要更新物理课程并为南卡罗来纳州EPSCoR州克莱姆森大学的本科生和研究生提供多学科教育。这一拟议的新推力利用了克莱姆森公司在纳米科学、材料和生物物理学方面的现有优势，并将根据主要资助机构的优先领域培养合作机会。
