Research Centre

  • Centre for Biosystems, Neuroscience, and Nanotechnology

    The Centre for Biosystems, Neuroscience, and Nanotechnology (CBNN) merges nanotechnology with biosystems and neuroscience to create a revolutionary impact on many aspects of medicine. This multidisciplinary centre will develop materials, structures, devices, and microsystems with nanometre precision for single molecule and cell interactions. We will develop portable biosystems with multiple sensors and stimulators in the new frontiers of molecular- and atomic-scale science and engineering, which can be applied to medical monitoring, diagnostics, tissue engineering and repair, and prostheses for debilitating disorders. Using a wide range of pre-clinical models from mice to human, our centre is devoted to become a major hub for innovation at the intersection of nanotechnology for biosystems, neurobiology, neural engineering, and behavioural and cognitive neuroscience. Our ultimate goal is to utilize cutting edge science and technology to translate basic research into potential therapeutic interventions and treatments of diseases and neurological disorders.
