Research Interests:

My expertise is in the emerging cross-disciplinary areas of biological chemistry, materials chemistry and nanoscience. My previous research was situated at the interface between biochemistry, organophosphorus and transition metal chemistry. My current research interests are directed towards the discovery of novel materials and tools for nanotechnology, as well as applications. I am currently conducting research on the chemical modification of single-walled carbon nanotubes and their applications in electronics, sensor technology and biomedicine.
