The
characterization and control of solid/liquid
interfaces is at the forefront of a range of topics
including regenerative medicine, biofouling, implant
technology, and medical diagnostics. My primary
research activities originate from the need to probe
conformation and orientation of biomolecules (DNA,
peptides, proteins, antibodies...) in contact to a
solid surface with molecular-level resolution and
under standard conditions in situ and in vitro. My
group has developed and applied femtosecond based
sum-frequency-generation (SFG) spectrometers and
several measuring cells including a thin layer
analysis and a spectro-electrochemical cell. These
have been used to study model systems such as
self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) with various
functional groups in air and liquid environments under
controlled temperature, solution, and potential
conditions. The information obtained by these
experiments facilitated our understanding of SFG
signals from more complex biomolecules such as DNA and
peptides. Other systems of interest are supported
lipid bilayers, membrane proteins, and
stimuli-responsive polymer coatings. Recent work from
my group has shown that SFG spectroscopy can be used
to interrogate ordering phenomena within the
extracellular matrix beneath adherent cells on
artificial substrates at early stages of cell
adhesion. The groundwork presented in these studies
opens the possibility for use of this technique in a
variety of other systems including the growth and
development of biofilms or dynamic processes occurring
during cell adhesion on functional surfaces.
