Discovery at the interface of organic chemistry, nanoscale materials and biological surfaces.

Welcome to the Wei Group website, a multidisciplinary research team. Our mission is to develop molecular and nanoscale systems with unique physical properties or biological functions. Organic and materials synthesis offer a powerful and creative synergy for addressing problems of fundamental scientific importance and technological impact. 

Several of our research interests include:

Cell-surface carbohydrates Nanoparticles as imaging and therapeutic agents Nanoscale photonic and magnetic devices Self-assembly and supermolecular chemistry Single-cell biosensors Synthetic Methodologies
