擅长核酸编辑和组装，致力于开拓DNA在纳米材料、生物传感、临床诊断等方面的基础和应用研究，开展的方向包括：

• 对靶点或标志物明确的重大恶性肿瘤和慢性疾病，开发可用于体液诊断的便捷适配体探针（试剂盒）；对于标志物未知的重大恶性肿瘤和慢性疾病（主要是三阴性乳腺癌），以适配体探针库为抓手，通过临床样本间的对冲抵消，筛选鉴定疾病相关的标志物和对应的检测探针，揭示疾病的分子机制并明确药物可作用的靶点；

• 开发新型3D框架核酸的设计和组装方案，在保持组装体近原子分辨率的前提下，将自组装的尺度在3D空间从纳米推向微米和亚毫米级，以满足其作为介质在材料科学中的更多应用需求；同时开发活细胞生产制备框架核酸的生物技术，降低制备成本，为框架核酸的临床研究提供支持；

• 利用试管内进化的高效筛选策略分离获得重大疾病相关的核酸酶（DNAzyme和Ribozyme），将其与框架核酸融合，编辑组装“环境响应型智能纳米药物载体”，用于重大疾病的靶向精确递药。
