Materials Engineering

known for viral assembly of nanotechnology; she & her team at MIT engineered M13 bacteriophage which is used to treat Ercherichia coli; discovered M13 nanowires resemble the basic components of a potentially powerful & compact battery; 2002 with Evelyn Hu founded Cambria; founder & on the Advisory Committee of Siluiria Technologies which develops catalystic methods for converting natural gas, into products such as ethylene, gasoline, & diesel fuel; 2009 she & her team demonstrated the feasibility of using genetically modified viruses to build both anode & cathode of a lithium-ion battery a process using a cheap & environmentally friendly process with no harmful solvents or toxic materials; 2014 she & her team demonstrated the potential for M13 phages to detect cancer by using M13 virus stabilized SWNTs (single walled carbon nanotubes) to visualize deep disseminated tumors in vivo to identify submillimeter tumors; at University of Texas at Austin she & her team discovered a novel way to make liquid crystalline film
