Areas of interest: 
  • design and fabricate dynamic hybrid nanodevices comprising linear protein molecular motors working on semiconductor manufactured electro-mechanical devices;
  • design and fabricate 鈥榮mart鈥� micro/nano-profiled and electrically-active surfaces that combinatorially probe the response of biomolecules for micro/nano-array applications;
  • study effective, non-denaturating technologies for immobilization of biomolecules in static (e.g. biosensors) and dynamic (e.g. microfluidics) biodevices;
  • study intelligent-like behaviour and algorithms used by microorganisms in their survival and search strategies, probed in microfabricated structures
