Utilizing developed facilities for the study of
Subcellular Interaction with Nanomaterial Technologies
(SCINT), the UG student will examine the role of
different nanomaterials within cells to examine
toxicology, cellular phenotype, and localization.
Materials of interest include iron species in collaboration
with the McHenry and Tilton groups and carbon nanomaterials
with the Islam group. Techniques for this project
include cell culture and transfection, live cell
fluorescence imaging, flow cytometry, protein analysis
as well as material manipulation and characterization. |
