Research

Research in Taheri-Qazvini’s group in the Laboratories for Soft Matter Engineering (LSME) focuses on the rational design, synthesis, and structure-property relation of soft materials for healthcare and biomedical applications. Specifically, our lab is interested in harnessing charge-driven self-assembly between biomacromolecules and two-dimensional nanomaterials for designing hybrid soft materials. This covers a broad class of systems in several fields, with problems including biofabrication, biosensing, environmental remediation, and cellular motions.
