Research domains
The ANR08 PCV HS-BioAFM project aims to develop the high speed imaging of biomolecules assemblies based on atomic force microscopy (AFM). The project tightly combines technological development and imaging approaches in order to generate a versatile instrument. Imaging at video rate should routinely achieve even on soft biological or organic molecules materials without damage to specimens or artifacts inherent to the design or imaging rates. She had experience and interest in using atomic force microscopy for studying nano-biomaterials and biological interfaces. The ultimate goal of the project is to develop a biosensor for rapid detection of viral pathogens in humans (collaboration with the Institute Curie (Paris), university of Montpellier).
