Welcome to the Liao Group

A place to solve analytical, biological, and material chemistry problems.

      Nanomaterials have received substantial interest from scientists and engineers in a wide range of fields, including chemistry, biology, medicine, materials science, electrical engineering, and physics. The demand to create miniaturized features has driven the development of novel bottom-up and top-down fabrication techniques. In order to capitalize on these advances, the next goal should be to focus on applying these techniques in a way that combines nanotechnology with other scientific fields. However, real-world applicability depends on the cost and convenience of these techniques. Therefore, our research focuses on straightforward and economical techniques. We are especially interested in the interfaces between biology and nanomaterials.
