SUMMARY OF RESEARCH INTERESTS:

Research interests are in the areas of science, technology and applications of biotechnical polymers (i.e. polymers of biotechnical significance). General description of areas of research interest in the fields of polymer materials science and engineering, chemical engineering, and biotechnology:

A. Structure/property relations in polymeric thin films: bio mimetic films/membranes and organized supramacromolecular assemblies with emphasis on small molecule, ion, and electron transport.

B. Biosensors and bioelectronics: electroactive and electrically conducting polymers with conferred biospecificity. Direct biosensors.

C. Surface chemistry of polymers related to bio-immobilizations and biocompatibility.

D. Polymer coatings for corrosion protection of metallic and semiconductor substrates in implant and in vivo devices.

E. Biochips: microfabricated solid state devices containing transducer-active elements based upon organic supramacromolecular assemblies and chemically responsive polymers for DNA hybridization.
