Life sciences

Overview

Life sciences and nanotechnology strongly converge. This is not just because nanotechnology now operates on a length scale similar to the dimension of a protein to fabricate hundreds of millions of transistors for latest-generation microprocessors, but also because the performances of the resulting microelectronic devices reach a point where complex biological systems can now be modeled with reasonable accuracy.

In the Experimental biosciences project, we employ our expertise in nanotechnology to address important problems in medicine and biology.
