The Flanders Group works in the areas of soft matter nanotechnology and biological physics. Our goals are to fabricate useful nano-electronic materials and to understand how living cells attach to these materials. We seek to control cellular adhesion in order to induce targeted cell types to attach to nanoelectrodes, as required to understand bioassembly, to develop new physiological techniques, and to improve bionic devices.
Research Area:
- Soft Matter Nanotechnology and Biological Physics
Research: Physics – Studies the use of nanoscale fiber scalpels to sample tumors and cancer cells
