Funded Activity Summary
Orchestrating cellular processes by engineering silicon nanowire architectures. This project aims to improve gene transport by creating low-cost, easily implemented, programmable and controllable silicon nanowire-mediated transfection technology, and to demonstrate high-throughput, parallel trafficking of bioactive payloads. Success would enable the design and fabrication of nano–bio interfaces with closely controlled geometry and architecture, to orchestrate specific cellular processes such as cellular reprogramming, adhesion, morphology, and differentiation with unprecedented efficiency and predictability. The advance could lead to breakthroughs in fundamental cellular studies, and better understanding of cell behaviour, function and fate.Funded Activity Details
