报告人: 谢建平 报告摘要:Ultrasmall metal nanoclusters (NCs) have attracted increasingattention from the scientific community due to their fascinatingphysicochemical properties. Today, functional metal NCs are finding growingacceptance in biomedical applications. To achieve a better performance inbiomedical applications, metal NCs can be interfaced with biomolecules, such asproteins, peptides, and DNA, to form a new class of biomolecule-NC composites(or bio-NCs in short), which typically show synergistic or novelphysicochemical and physiological properties. In this talk, I will discuss someof our recent studies at the interface of metal NCs and biomolecules,highlighting some unique physicochemical properties and the biologicalfunctions of bio-NCs. 报告人:谢建平(Jianping Xie)副教授,新加坡国立大学(National University of Singapore)化学和生物分子工程系 个人简介:谢建平博士先后在清华大学化学工程系获得本科和硕士学位,然后赴新加坡国立大学攻读博士,获得新加坡国立大学与美国麻省理工学院联合培养博士学位。在新加坡纳米技术与生物技术研究所工作几年后,于2010年加盟新加坡国立大学化工和生物分子工程系。目前为新加坡国立大学副教授。主要研究方向为贵重金属纳米团簇的合成及应用。谢博士已经在Nat.
