Taheri-Qazvini, Nader
Assistant Professor
My research focuses on the rational design, synthesis, and structure-property relation of soft materials for healthcare and biomedical applications. Specifically, my lab is interested in harnessing charge driven self-assembly between macromolecules 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.
