X. Sunney Xie

Professor Xie and his research group have made advances in room-temperature single-molecule spectroscopy in order to investigate molecular interactions and chemical reactions at a level of great detail. Our current research has three objectives: (1) to understand conformational and chemical dynamics of biomolecules such as enzymes through single-molecule spectroscopic studies; (2) to study biochemical activities of macromolecules in living cells, gene expression in particular; (3) to develop new microscopy techniques for cellular imaging.
