Funded Activity Summary

Surface ligation of nanomaterials for biomedical applications . The project aims to explore the synergistic effects co-ligands for target recognition and biofouling protection in nanoparticle surface patterns to enable practical atomic scale precision engineering of efficient and biofouling resistant nanosensors. The project will fundamentally characterise interfacial interactions and dynamics of ligated nano-surfaces and biomolecules via advanced computer modelling. Outcomes should include practical molecular design guidelines for functional ligands and predicted optimal patterns for combining functional and antifouling ligands on gold nanomaterials for biosensing technologies. The advanced predictive modelling capabilities will facilitate future practical engineering of efficient biomedical devices.
