Funded Activity Summary

The proposed research will investigate the molecular basis of how synthetic nano-sized materials interact with the biological system. Using a systematic approach, we aim to establish a novel methodology for better assessing the biological properties of nanoparticles. The outcomes of this study will provide important information for predicting the biosafety of new nanomaterials, as well as for design of safer and more efficient nanoparticles in therapeutic applications.
