In the first part of talk, I will present biophotonic nanosatellites that have multiple functions: targeting, imaging, gene delivery & regulationsin living systems. For the remote optical control of gene regulations and therapeutic applications, we have developed Oligonucleotides on a Nanoplasmonic Carrier Optical Switch (ONCOS). We also accomplished photonic gene circuits thatutilized RNA-medicated gene silencing to multistep bidirectional control of specific gene expression by taking advantage of the tunability of the longitudinal plasmon resonance wavelength in gold optical nanoantennas.In the second part of talk, I will discuss (1) Cellular BASICs (Biologic Application Specific Integrated Circuits) for single stem cell analysis, dynamic cell culture array, and self-powered integrated microfluidic blood analysis system;(2) Biologically inspired 3D tissues on chip: disease-specific integrated microphysiological human tissue models via normal and patient-specific human induced pluripotent stem cells for drug development and safety; (3) Integrated Molecular Diagnostic Systems (iMDx) for global healthcare. In summary, I will share my vision for the convergence of science, engineering, and medicine to transform life sciences, and finding the solutions for preventive personalized medicine and low-cost healthcare systems.
