Biomolecular Spectroscopy

Research in the BMS group focuses on the development of  mainly optical spectroscopic techniques for identification and elucidation of structural properties of biologically important molecules and their interactions.  Steady state and time-resolved fluorescence and phosphorescence, a variety of Raman based techniques (ordinary Raman, (UV) Resonance Raman. time-resolved and time-gated Raman, SERRS), IR, FTIR, cyclic voltammetry, impedance spectroscopy, highly sensitive absorption using liquid cavity ringdown spectroscopy, and circular dichroism are among the techniques available in our labs. A full description of  the instrumentation, and of several applications we developed can be found in the research sections of this website.

The Biomolecular Spectroscopy group is part of the section Biomolecular Analysis and Spectroscopy (BAS). More information about Biomolecular Analysis can be found here
