ABOUT THE GROUP
The RLE Micro / Nanofluidic BioMEMS Group is exploring various ways that micro/nanofabrication techniques can be used for advanced biomolecule manipulation and separation applications. It is now possible to reliably fabricate nanofluidic gaps and filters that have regular, controllable structures, with near-molecular dimensions (10 -100nm). One can take
advantage of these nanofluidic structures for advanced separation and manipulation of various
biomolecules and bioparticles, including cell, cellular organelles, DNA, protein, and carbohydrates. The research of group is currently involved with actively designing, fabricating and testing the new kinds of molecular sieves and filters that can be essential for the
next-generation biomolecule assays in the new era of genomics, proteomics and glycomics. At the same time, the subject of molecular stochastic motion and molecular interaction with
nanostructure is actively studied, in order to provide firm theoretical and scientific ground for the
development of novel nanofluidic molecular filters.
