Our Research:

Focus is on enzyme engineering and nanotechnology.  One major effort is on the development of nanostructured biocatalysts for applications such as chemical processing, drug synthesis, pollutant degradation, biosensors and biofuel cells.  In another thrust, we explore unique biomaterials including bioactive surfactants, nanofibrous proteins, and nanoporous bioreactors.
