Abstract :
The idea of tiny vessels roaming around in human blood vessels working as surgical nanorobots was first proposed by Richard Feynman, a vision that has triggered imagination in scientists and non-scientists alike. With current advances in nanotechnology, there have been several strategies to realize this dream of a “nanovoyager”, aiming to maneuver artificial nanostructures in biological media for diagnostic and therapeutic applications. We will provide a review of the various approaches that have been used to move artificial nanostructures remotely in fluidic environments in a controllable fashion, with special emphasis on manipulation techniques that rely on small, spatially homogenous magnetic fields.
Biography :
Ambarish Ghosh received his undergraduate degree in Physics from the Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur, India. Subsequently, he did his PhD in Physics from Brown University in 2004, and worked at Harvard University from 2005-2009 as a postdoctoral fellow. In 2009, he joined Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore, India as an Assistant Professor, where he is currently a faculty member at the Centre for Nano Science and Engineering, and associate faculty at the Departments of Physics and Electrical Communication Engineering. His research interests include the study of quantum fluids, plasmonics, driven colloidal particles and their applications in biotechnology.
