The mission of Narayanan Lab is to translate fundamental discoveries in the cellular states of matter into developing new human-health-centric technologies with synthetic polymers. In this process, we seek to learn new biology, synthesize advanced polymer materials, and discover emergent physical phenomena. Our main areas of focus are biomimicry with minimal polymer designs, interfacing synthetic polymers with cellular biomacromolecules, and quantitative frameworks with imaging and high-throughput polymer designs.
