Abstract: Nanomedicine refers to the use of nanomaterials for therapeutic and diagnostic purposes. The development of fundamental research in nanomaterials and nanoscience for the last two decades has brought forth ripe opportunities for commercialization in nanomedicines. Research and development in nanomedicine requires an interdisciplinary approach that combines knowledge and expertise in chemistry, biology, physics, and materials science. Experimental and computational approaches are desired that can complement each other. In this talk, I will present our research effort that brings computational studies closer to experimental studies to meet the challenges in nanomedicine. I also hope to inspire next generation scientists to be prepared for greater achievement in research and development in nanomedicine.
