Recent advancements in chip-based probing, detection and characterization of diseased cells provides new insights about disease development and interactions of sub-cellular species with the physiological environment. Our work on using microfabrication and nanotechnology towards new modalities to examine the presence or absence of particular disease biomarkers at molecular and cellular scale will be discussed. Some work done in my lab on the integration of biomedical engineering, nanoscience and nanotechnology, with particular focus towards their application in diverse areas like nanomanufacturing, molecular diagnostics, chip-based recognition of cancer cells and site-specific controlled drug delivery systems will be presented.
