Welcome to YU IRU
The
research of Yu
Initiative Research Unit focus on the development of independent and
multidisciplinary research program though the
triangle of chemistry, electronic materials, and biomedical/biological
investigations based on molecular and nano-assembled building blocks of
conducting polymers. Although many applications of conducting polymers
have
been demonstrated feasible, there was only limited research toward
biological
and biomedical applications based on the non-functionalized forms of
conducting
polymers. Conducting polymers introduce electrical characteristics to
build up
the complexity necessary for further understanding of the targeted
biological/biomedical issues. In our research, we
utilize conductive molecular building blocks to synthesize conducting
polymers tool-kits for biologoical/biomedical applications.
