Our Works

  • Topic 1. Systems Biology

    We are studying the interconnectedness of biological components and signaling pathways.

  • Topic 2. Single-Molecule Biophysics

    We are studying diffusive and conformational dynamics of various membrane proteins (receptors) in live cells at single molecule level.

  • Topic 3. nanoMedicine

    We are trying to use our technology for medical applications (e.g. extracellular vesicles, drug delievery system).

  • Tool 1. Organic/inorganic Chemistry

    Plasmonic nanoparticles, Quantum dots, nanocatalysts conjugated with functional molecules or biomolecules

  • Tool 2. Live-cell Microscopy

    We have developted optical microscope; Dark-field, Fluorescence super-resolution microscopy / spectroscopy with optical tweezer

  • Tool 3. Artificial Intelligence

    We are developing AI techniques for simulation and analysis of our experiments. (e.g. Machine learning, deep learning algorithm)
