Centre for
Antimicrobial Bioengineering
@ Nanyang Technological University (Singapore)
The
Centre for Antimicrobial Bioengineering studies new antimicrobial biomacromolecules to combat resistant Gram-negative and Gram-positive
bacteria. We are an interdisciplinary group of polymer chemists, sugar
chemists, microbiologists, and molecular cell biologists assembled for this
noble purpose.
Director
Professor Mary Chan-Park
Dr
Chan-Park did her PhD in polymers in MIT in 1993. She then did her postdoctoral
fellow under the sponsorship of Dow Corning (USA). She worked for 10 years in industries in
various technical management positions in USA and Singapore. She was a senior
technical manager in Sipix Imaging (CA, USA) from
1999-2001 working on electronic paper. She then joined the Nanyang
Technological University (NTU) as Associate Professor in 2001.
Dr Chan is presently a professor
at the School of Chemical and Biomedical Engineering at the Nanyang
Technological University Singapore (NTU Singapore). Dr Chan-Parks main
research interests are in polymers in nanoscience and biotechnology. She has
published extensively, with more than 200 papers in top-tier journals such as
Nature Materials, Advanced Materials, Advanced Functional Materials, JACS,
Small, ACS Nano, Biomaterials, etc.
