This laboratory designs and synthesizes advanced functional materials, including metal-organic frameworks, covalent organic frameworks, and porous molecular crystals. Through international and interdisciplinary collaborations, these materials are used for carbon dioxide capture and precision cancer treatment. This research is highly relevant to green energy technology and the biomedical industry. Through a short-term research experience of 4-6 months, student interns will experience Taiwan's academic environment and research resources. The main research directions are as follows:
(1) Development of energy-saving and sustainable carbon capture adsorption materials: Physical adsorption separation is a relatively energy-efficient separation method. This laboratory is one of the very few in Taiwan to develop novel porous materials for carbon capture. It possesses the only system in Taiwan capable of measuring gas separation breakthrough curves for small samples, as well as pressure swing adsorption experiments. This allows the new porous materials to be combined with practical carbon capture applications, contributing to Taiwan's long-term goal of carbon neutrality.
(2) Nanomedicine Design for Precision Cancer Treatment: We will apply materials chemistry to nanomedicine design, aiming to combine clinical perspectives with a chemical and materials-based approach to develop highly selective, highly effective, and low-side-effect cutting-edge anticancer drugs.
