Research Interests
My lab will develop molecular electrochemical interfaces between living systems and electronic devices, working across three interconnected directions: molecular recognition chemistry, soft polymer materials, and transistor-based bioelectronic systems. Our goal is to build interfaces that are molecularly specific, electrically programmable, and stable in living systems over clinically relevant timescales. Our vision is to bridge the body's molecular signals and electronic medicine, enabling medicine to continuously listen to living chemistry and respond with molecular precision.
