Funded Activity Summary

Seeing is believing: Microscopy-capable single-molecule bioelectronics. This project aims to create new biophysical tools for single-molecule sensing by advancing the state-of-the-art in nanoscale bioelectronic devices. The goal is to generate novel bioelectronic devices optimised for fabrication on microscope coverslip (170 micron glass) for compatibility with new low-cost platforms for advanced biological microscopy. Expected outcomes include the first organic electrochemical transistors interfaced to constrained area lipid bilayers for studying membrane proteins at single-molecule level and nanoscale transistors for electrostatically detecting motile microtubules in in-vitro molecular motor assays for biocomputation. The intended benefit is innovation in capabilities and manufacturing of bioelectronics.
