Research
Current research interests include development of a rapid, reliable, and non-toxic method for insertion of molecular beacons into living cells. The overall aim of this research is to facilitate real-time, innocuous detection of gene expression and mutations. Engineering methods for highly sensitive fluorescence detection and cell handling are of considerable importance and will be emphasized in the latter stages of this project.
