Welcome to the Kedem Lab, a brand-new research group in the Department of Chemistry at Marquette University!

We develop and explore the behavior of dynamic, functional nanomaterials. Our goal is to develop autonomous nanoscale systems which can communicate, regulate reactions, propel themselves, and transport cargo. In this quest we are often inspired by biological mechanisms, utilize techniques from varied fields of chemistry, and take a physical chemistry approach to create and characterize new active structures.
