Huibing Zhong

Participated in an experiment utilizing Förster Resonance Energy Transfer (FRET) to measure the relative distances between different DNA molecules.
Responsibilities:

• Developed and implemented experimental protocols to use FRET as a molecular ruler to determine distance changes at the nanometer scale between DNA molecules.
• Conducted extensive theoretical background research on FRET, including the principles of non-radiative energy transfer between donor and acceptor fluorophores.
• Prepared DNA samples labeled with fluorophores and executed fluorescence measurements using a plate reader.
• Analyzed FRET efficiency data to confirm the relative lengths of DNA molecules, ensuring consistency with theoretical predictions.

Participated in a theoretical research project during the Bionanotechnology and Medicine course, focusing on the potential of nanomedicine for treating neurological disorders.

Responsibilities:

• Designed theoretical and experimental protocols to evaluate the application of nanotechnology in central nervous system injury treatments.
• Conducted in-depth analysis of scientific literature to assess the role of nanomaterials in promoting neural cell regeneration and repair.
• Conducted simulations of nanoparticle behavior in the nervous system using data from existing research literature to explore potential therapeutic mechanisms.
