Current Research Topics

• Our research goal is to create method to prepare organic compounds in the way that are robust, convenient and environmentally friendly with less hazardous waste generation. Also, we use organic synthesis principles and tools to create novel molecules with new functions to enable the creation of innovative polymers for next generation point-of-care biological and chemical sensors.
