183rd iCeMS Seminar/CeMI Seminar Series 44: Prof. Young-Tae Chang
CeMI:Center for Meso-Bio Single-Molecule Imaging
The conventional bioprobe design has been carried out by so-called hypothesis-driven approach. The basic assumption of hypothesis-driven approach is that the scientist "knows the target" in advance, and then design the recognition motif for it. An alternative approach is diversity-driven approach, in which a broad range of fuorescence molecules in a library format are constructed by combinatorial chemistry, as a tool box for unbiased screening. Using the Diversity Oriented Fluorescence Library Approach (DOFLA), Dr. Chang and his colleagues developed various colorful sensors for many different analyses and bioimaging probes from stem cells to neuronal cells. Dr. Chang will present these results as well as the whole animal imaging data obtained by near infrared probes.
