Ultra-sensitive single-molecule detection techniques provide a powerful way to analyze the complex behavior of biomolecules because distributional outliers can be observed on an individual basis. This cannot be done with any classical approach that measures the average of an ensemble. We are currently employing both electrical and optical approaches to ultrasensitive analysis. We are also exploring novel nanopore structures in biomembranes that have potential utility in nanoscale control and measurement applications.
