NANOBIOTECHNOLOGY GROUP @ UNAM

Our laboratory is focused on applications of molecular biology and genetics in nanobiotechnology. We are working in collaboration with several groups from different scientific fields forming an interdisciplinary working environment for our students and researchers. Our interdisciplinary research areas include in vitro and in vivo analysis of effects of nanofibers in collaboration with biomimetic materials group; identification of genetic and molecular basis of neurological disorders in collaboration with human genetics group; and development of biosensors in collaboration with  research groups working in electronics, physics and chemistry. We are also working on genetic manipulations and selections of microorganisms to improve the current methods in sustainable technologies using biological materials.
