Several laboratories at NIMBE are involved in biology or healthcare-related research:
- LICSEN develops innovative technologies for functionalized surfaces and nanostructures with multiple applications in biology and healthcare: biosensors, implants, drug delivery, bactericidal surfaces…
- The NMR/MRI techniques developed by LSRDM are at the interface between physics, chemistry and biology. In particular, NMR spectroscopy and imaging enable the study of biological macromolecules and the metabolome of biological samples (cells, tissues and organisms), and the development of technologies for the medicine of the future.
- At LIONS, studies of microfluidic devices have a wide range of applications in biology.
- LEDNA and LIONS are also closely involved in nano-toxicology studies.
See in particular the following research activities:
- Chemical and biochemical sensors, medical diagnosis (LEDNA, LICSEN, LIONS, LSDRM).
- Interfaces, complex fluids and microfluidics (LIONS)
- Nanostructures and biomolecules: biomedicine and nanotoxicity (LEDNA, LIONS (nanotoxicity studies) and LICSEN, LSDRM (future medicine methods).
- Quantum chemistry and molecular simulations (LSDRM)
