Laboratory of Advanced Theranostic Materials and Technology

An extremely important part of the therapeutic process is to identify the disease at an early stage. The efficacy of therapeutic interventions and therapies is often attributed to early diagnosis. Therefore, advanced diagnosis & treatment materials and technologies are critical for the early diagnosis and treatment of major chronic diseases. As a key point for exploring cellular environments and indicating cellular phenomena, developing novel efficient biosensors will offer greatly promising methods for the early diagnosis of diseases. The study of advanced diagnosis & treatment materials and technologies, such as diagnostic reagents and kits, biomedical imaging agents, real-time monitoring systems for cellular toxicity, bioimaging and biomedical reagents in vitro and in vivo，and advanced biomedical imaging equipment will lead to biomedical and clinical breakthroughs.
