Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have one of the highest production volumes among carbonaceous engineered nanoparticles (ENPs) worldwide and are have potential uses in applications including biomedicine, nanocomposites, and energy conversion. However, CNTs possible widespread usage and associated likelihood for biological exposures have driven concerns regarding their nanotoxicity and ecological impact. In this work, we probe the …

William Walker’s image of a liposome and its interaction with engineered nanomaterials was selected as the cover image of the journal Langmuir.  Babak Moghadam’s work was featured on the cover.  Congrats William.  

Steve worked with Jaime Raben and Pavlos Vlachos to show that using robust phase correlation improves the accuracy of determining particle displacement over cross-correlation and confocal imaging.

Babak Moghadam,Wen-Che Hou, and Charlie Corredor coauthored a paper on the disruption of artificial cell membranes by engineered nano particles. The article is published in Langmuir and will appear in print in August and can be viewed here.

Jonathan Posner published a paper with Carlos Perez (group alumni) and Juan Santiago in PNAS. The paper reports on chaos in electrically driven microflows. Read the full paper
