Research summary
Our research focuses on developing novel multi-functional molecules for imaging, diagnostic, therapeutic, and biotechnological applications. We specialize in environmentally sensitive molecules that respond to biological and chemical changes during disease progression. The use of the developed molecular imaging probes, drugs, and vectors have been applied to manage various types of diseases, including cancer, inflammation, infection, arthritis, and cardiovascular diseases.
