Summary
Optical Metasurface for Single Small Extracellular Vesicle Analysis. This project aims to develop an innovative nanobiotechnology to study small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) – small biological particles that are important in intercellular communication. The technology will enable unprecedented depth of analysis and single particle resolution. It will generate new knowledge in both engineering and biological sciences by improving sEV image resolution and collecting information regarding the dist ....Optical Metasurface for Single Small Extracellular Vesicle Analysis. This project aims to develop an innovative nanobiotechnology to study small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) – small biological particles that are important in intercellular communication. The technology will enable unprecedented depth of analysis and single particle resolution. It will generate new knowledge in both engineering and biological sciences by improving sEV image resolution and collecting information regarding the distribution of different sEV subpopulations based on their protein phenotypes. Expected outcomes include a universal and ultrasensitive platform with many applications in analytical biochemistry such as disease diagnostics, environmental sciences, food safety and agriculture.Read moreRead less

Summary
Developing a multimodal imaging pipeline for antisense technology. Antisense molecules represent a revolutionary drug discovery platform for life science, but to understand their distributions in cells and tissues is challenging. By integrating nanobiotechnology approaches, this project expects to develop and apply innovative imaging workflow to track antisense molecules in cells and tissues with nanoscale precision. Expected outcomes include new knowledge of the trafficking of these molecules a ....Developing a multimodal imaging pipeline for antisense technology. Antisense molecules represent a revolutionary drug discovery platform for life science, but to understand their distributions in cells and tissues is challenging. By integrating nanobiotechnology approaches, this project expects to develop and apply innovative imaging workflow to track antisense molecules in cells and tissues with nanoscale precision. Expected outcomes include new knowledge of the trafficking of these molecules across cells and tissues and refined imaging methods. This project should provide more strategic delivery of antisense molecules to specific cells and tissue, which will have significant downstream economic and social benefits to the Australian community.
