Stine\u003c\/b\u003e, PhD, is Professor in the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry at University of Missouri -- St. Louis. He spent two years as a postdoctoral researcher at University of California Los Angeles working in the field of monolayers at the water-air interface in the lab of Prof. Charles M. Knobler. His research has focused on a range of projects related to molecular organization and recognition at interfaces, often of biological significance, including monolayers of chiral molecules, cyclodextrins, natural product –membrane interactions, and most recently of carbohydrate derivatives in collaboration with Prof. Alexei Demchenko. His work in the area of carbohydrate nanotechnology involves the application of nanoporous gold as a support for iterative carbohydrate synthesis and for the study of carbohydrate -- protein binding.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eIntroduces the emerging field of carbohydrate nanotechnology with emphasis on its applications to biological systems\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWhen nanoparticles or nanostructures are integrated with complex carbohydrate structures, they are equipped with the biological functions of carbohydrates.
