General Area: Molecular and Cellular Biophysics

Specific Interests: Our goal is to understand biological systems at the molecular level. Using fluorescence techniques as Fluorescence Resonant Energy Transfer (FRET) with single molecule sensitivity, we are able to study conformational changes in bio-systems in the sub-nanometer scale. We look to understand the systems under study both from their biological significance and the underlying physics. We are interested not only in the application of existing techniques but also in the development of new ones.
