Research
The interdisciplinary research in the Sharma research group focuses on probing and characterizing the underlying chemistry and physics of biological processes. The long range research goal of the group is the use of innovative Raman spectroscopic methods to create new approaches for early detection of disease (both in vitro and in vivo detection), as well as methods for chemical and biological sensing.
