We are generally interested in developing programmable molecular systems and technology inspired by biology. Specifically, we focus on engineering information directed self-assembly of nucleic acid (DNA/RNA) structures and devices, and on exploiting such systems to do useful molecular work, such as probing and programming biological processes for imaging and therapeutic applications. - ## Person Categories [Faculty](/person-categories/faculty)
