Research Goal:
A short essay
I:
How much could it be crucial to
obtain the right information in the molecular scale, it is
equally important to device new tools
and methodology for getting the right information. Here we will give
emphasis to develop novel analytical methods for physical
measurement by exploiting fluorescence
spectroscopy, optical imaging
and probing concept. Our long term research goal
would be to develop technique for single molecule fluorescence
detection and manipulation at AUB which will be applied to
acquire information hidden in chemistry, physics, biology and medicine
at individual molecular level in solution. This will also open the scope
to visualize single molecule in a cell and membranes.
A short essay
II:
Exploring new phenomenon in chemistry through advancement of
modern technology was never as easy as it looks today. Applying
advanced spectroscopic tools such as
fluorescence probing concept and single molecule manipulation we
shall investigate complicated chemical species such as
micelle, membrane, protein, macrocyclic molecule, etc.
at microscopic and nanoscopic level.
The photophysical behavior of probe molecule in these
environments will be unearthed while estimating molecular
phenomenon like
interactions, distances, dynamics, diffusion rates and paths,
aggregations, orientations, conformational changes,
in solution.
Finally, our research will lead
towards nanoscopic
investigations
applied in nanobiotechnology.
