Our laboratory has developed novel DNA-based "fluorescence nanobarcodes" that can rapidly identify multiple pathogens simultaneously in a single assay. These DNA nanobarcodes are formed from branched DNA via a novel self-assembly process. Each DNA nanobarcode carries a unique fluorescence color ratio – for example, 1 green dye and 2 red dyes (1G2R), or 4 green dyes and 1 red dye (4G1R). This allows us to distinguish among a large number of different targets using only two colors. Since our nanobarcodes are made entirely from DNA, they can be easily interfaced with biological systems. For instance we can use DNA nanobarcodes to detect pathogen biomarkers in order to diagnose infectious diseases. DNA nanobarcodes are formed via a novel self-assembly process. Each DNA nanobarcode carries a unique fluorescence color ratio to identify a specific pathogen biomarker.

Thomas Research Group is focused on the development of novel polymers and polymer-based composite materials with unusual optical, mechanical, and electronic properties. The main areas of current interest include photonics, phononics, interference lithography and mechanical behavior of microtrusses, polymer physics and engineering of the mechanical and optical properties of block copolymers, liquid crystalline polymers and hybrid organic-inorganic nanocomposites.

INanoBio’s mission is to develop high-accuracy early stage disease diagnostics using transformative nano-biotechnology platforms and machine learning. Extract systems scale information from complex disease biology, identify and detect disease specific molecular biomarkers, signatures at prodromal or pre-symptomatic stages. We believe most diseases can be detected early, enabling early personalized therapeutic intervention to preempt full development of diseases, ushering in preemptive medicine in two to three decades.
