Our research in this area focuses on:
- Droplet-Interface Bilayers
Our research on this topic focuses on understanding self-assembly of droplet-interface bilayers (DIBs) their stability and sensing properties. In addition, we also focus on understanding communication between the droplets when ion channels are inserted in the bilayers connecting the two droplets - Polymers and Hydrogels
Our research on this topic focuses on developing molecular, continuum and multiscale approaches to understand stimuli-responsive behavior of polymers and hydrogels. We are specifically interested in pH, electric field, temperature and biomolecule responsive hydrogels.
