Our team works on the following broad research areas
1) Novel particle manipulation techniques including optical tweezers integrated with multi-modal spectroscopy and optothermal tweezers 2) Nanoscale surface engineering for photonics and biomedical applications 3) Wearable healthcare devices 4) Open and surface microfluidics 5) Environmental Spectroscopy 6) Biophotonics. We attempt to bridge the gap between insight-driven research on the fundamental level and applied research by bringing novel ideas that have emerged from the former into the context of practical applications.
