Welcome to Dr. Sun's Molecular Engineering Group
The long term goal of our research program is to contribute to biomedical science and technology through basic research. Specifically, we are applying organic, bioorganic and medicinal chemistry, polymer chemistry and chemical biology knowledge and approaches to pharmaceutical and biomedical research. The main research interests are in the following three areas:
- Functional glyco-affinity ligand engineering: For proteomics and glycomics, pathogen and biomarker identification, antiviral drug and targeted drug delivery application.
- Cytomimetic antithrombotics: To explore vascular pathological and surgical interventional sites-local/targeted antithrombotics.
- Biological and cellular chemistry: To develop site-specific/chemo- and bio-orthogonal and live cell compatible approaches for biomolecules, biomaterials and cells modification and functionalization.
