Funded Activity Summary

Computational modelling of nanostructures designed to mimic ion-selective biological channels. The project aims to design nanotubes (hollow tubes with nanometre diameters) constructed from various materials, such as carbon, to broadly mimic biological ion channels. This research will facilitate the development of efficient desalination membranes, potent antibiotics and pharmaceutical products for treatments of cancer and cystic fibrosis.
