This research focuses on two intimately related issues, 'biological matter' and 'biomaterials'. The former may be understood as molecules, materials and structures present in living matter, for example, lipids, proteins, membranes, and DNA, in their natural environment. The latter term 'biomaterials' refers to man-made or designed materials that use organic/biological molecules or structures as building blocks, or their principles of operation.

这项研究集中在两个密切相关的问题，“生物物质”和“生物材料”。前者可以被理解为存在于生物物质中的分子、材料和结构，例如，在它们的自然环境中的脂质、蛋白质、膜和DNA。后一术语“生物材料”是指使用有机/生物分子或结构作为构建模块或其操作原理的人造或设计材料。
