Micro- and Nano-Probes and Multifunctional Systems for Enhancing Theranostics
Description:
Theranostic systems enable precise and site-specific therapy or drug development through concurrent monitoring and treatment of diseases. Micro- and nano-probes and analytical systems improves spatial resolution, sensitivity, and portability and even wearability for enhancing theragnostic efficacy. Also, a combination of multiple components into a single platform makes theranostic process better controlled. This symposium will provide a forum on micro- and nano-probes and multifunctional systems for enhancing theranostics. This symposium will cover the following topics, but not limited to, including micro- and nano-imaging labels and nanoparticles for in vitro or/and in vivo detection, new materials for imaging, in vitro diagnostic or prognostic tools, wearable devices, microfluidic device, micro-and nano-electronics for imaging, in vivo molecular imaging and sensing platforms, molecular therapeutic agents, multifunctional materials and systems for theranostics, image-guided therapy.
Organizer: Xiangqun Zeng - Oakland University
Biography: Dr. Xiangqun Zeng is currently a distinguished Professor of Analytical Chemistry at Oakland University, Rochester, Michigan. She has established an internationally recognized, interdisciplinary research program in chemical sensor and biosensor development for real-time in vitro, ex vivo, in vivo, in situ detection of important chemical and bioanalytes. Her lab has published more than 100 high quality peer reviewed papers and five book chapters. She is an organizer for the 18th international meeting on chemical sensors in 2021 and an Editorial Board member of Journal of Electrochemistry. Dr. Zeng is a regular NIH and NSF grant and panel reviewer and she has served on more than 60 US federal grant review panels. Dr. Zeng has received numerous awards to recognize her contribution including Frank Giblin Lifetime Achievement Award (2020) that is given to the principal investigator with the most funding over the course of a faculty’s career at Oakland University.
: Nianqiang Wu - University of Massachusetts Amherst
Biography: Dr. Nianqiang Wu is an Armstrong-Siadat Endowed Professor in Materials Science & Engineering at Department of Chemical Engineering at University of Massachusetts Amherst. His lab aims to gain fundamental understanding of charge transfer and energy transfer in electrochemical and optoelectronic materials and devices and in design and developing high-performance materials and devices with the 'material-by-design' strategy. His work centers on four areas of interplay: (i) photocatalysis and photo-electrochemical catalysis for environmental and energy sustainability, (ii) electrochemical energy storage, (iii) biosensors, microfluidics, lab-on-chips and point-of-care testing devices for healthcare and environmental monitoring, and (iv) photodynamic therapy, drug delivery, bio-imaging and precision medicine. These areas are tied with fundamental discovery of charge transfer and energy transfer processes, and build on our interdisciplinary expertise in electrochemistry and plasmonics.
