Previous Episode: Alexander S. Mikhailov: Simple computational models for exploring complex bio-dynamic phenomena (Kanazawa/Recorded 19 February 2021)

Next Episode: Professor Toshio Ando: Publication of an insightful reference book on high-speed atomic force microscopy (HS-AFM) for in situ biological applications

Professor Shigehisa Akine is a principal investigator at the NanoLSI WPI Kanazawa University. Professor Mark MacLachlan is an overseas principal investigator at the NanoLSI WPI Kanazawa University and faculty at the University of British Columbia.

In this episode of the NanoLSI Podcast they describe recent developments in their research on nanomolecular cages for biomolecular sensing and biocompatible AFM tips for chemically probing living cells, respectively.

The Kanazawa University NanoLSI Podcast offers updates of the latest news and research at the WPI-NanoLSI Kanazawa University for a global audience.

The Nano Life Science Institute (NanoLSI) at Kanazawa University was established in 2017 as part of the World Premier International (WPI) Research Center Initiative of the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology (MEXT).

Researchers at the NanoLSI are combining their cutting-edge expertise in scanning probe microscopy to establish ‘nano-endoscopic techniques’ to directly image, analyze, and manipulate biomolecules for insights into mechanisms governing life phenomena such as diseases.
