Signal amplification strategies are pivotal in improving the sensitivity, speed, and reliability of point-of-care diagnostic assays. Our groundbreaking approach involves harnessing the power of plasmonic nanostructures as optical nanoantennas, capable of concentrating excitation light into zeptoliter volumes. By leveraging this technology, we achieve remarkable enhancements in optical signals from both fluorophores and Raman-active molecules. With our cutting-edge plasmonic nanoantennas, we are revolutionizing the field of sensing assays, paving the way for highly sensitive and efficient point-of-care diagnostics.

Molecular self-assembly, a fascinating process in biology, involves the spontaneous organization of molecules into complex structures. It plays a crucial role in various biological phenomena, including protein folding, DNA replication, and cell membrane formation. Harnessing the principles of molecular self-assembly opens new possibilities for creating novel optical imaging nanodevices. Leveraging molecular self-assembly, we unlock innovative approaches for developing advanced optical imaging technologies with enhanced sensitivity and resolution.

Targeted imaging of cancer cells and their cellular functions provides invaluable insights into the complex nature of cancer biology. By employing specialized molecular probes, this advanced imaging technique enables precise visualization and analysis of specific molecular targets within cancer cells, shedding light on their behavior and interactions. We are dedicated to pushing the boundaries of targeted cancer imaging by developing innovative nanobiosensors that enhance sensitivity, accuracy, and real-time monitoring of cellular processes, facilitating advancements in cancer research and personalized treatment approaches.
