Carlos E. Castro

Carlos E. Castro's research focuses on DNA nanotechnology, particularly the design, simulation, and characterization of dynamic DNA origami structures that can move, reconfigure, or act as molecular-scale sensors. His work combines experimental methods with computational modeling (including coarse-grained simulations and deep learning) to build nanoscale devices with applications in areas like gene delivery, cancer vaccines, and biological force measurement. This research sits at the intersection of nanotechnology, molecular biology, and biomedical engineering.

Publication output has grown over the past decade, rising from about 8-11 papers per year in 2017-2021 to a peak of around 20 in 2024, indicating an increasingly active research program.
