Research summary
AI-generated

Sanjun Fan works at the interface of chemistry and materials science, developing sensors and imaging tools that can detect molecules such as glucose, dopamine, and disease-related proteins at very small scales. This includes designing nanoparticle-based materials, electrochemical sensors, and advanced light- and Raman-based imaging techniques for applications in medical diagnostics, catalysis, and biosensing. Their work combines materials synthesis with analytical chemistry methods to build sensitive detection technologies.
