Colloidal Nanoplasmonics for Biomedical Applications
The BioNanoPlasmonics Laboratory at CIC biomaGUNE is led by Prof. Luis M. Liz-Marzán. Our research activity is focused on the synthesis and growth mechanisms of (plasmonic) metal nanoparticles with controlled composition, size and morphology (including chiral shapes); colloidal composites; nanostructured thin films and nanoparticle ordered arrays as SERS substrates; 3D bioprinting of cellular scaffolds and cancer models; and the use of plasmonic nanoparticles as biosensors.
