Bioanalytical Chemistry and Biointerfaces

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

The development of new materials which can interact with biological systems in a desired way is vital to many established and emerging industrial sectors, including diagnostics, drug discovery and implantable devices. Dr. Brennan will use infrastructure within the newly established Biointerfaces Institute to create a novel, high-throughput approach to discovery and characterization of new biomaterials and surfaces. Much of this work will focus on developing new materials for the immobilization of biomolecules, the development of improved analytical devices based on such materials, and applying the devices for environmental and health monitoring. This work has the potential to spin out new commercial products and new companies, to lead to improved point-of-care diagnostic devices, and to revolutionize drug-screening technologies.**
