Title: Fluorescent Tunable Polymer Nanoparticle for Visualization of Cell-Surface Protein-Specific Sialylation based on Fluorescence Resonance Energy Transfer (FRET)
We developed a fluorescent tunable polymer nanoparticle probe and established a dual-labelled FRET system on the cell surface. Based on this improved strategy, the imaging effect for protein-specific sialylation was significantly enhanced, and more obvious signal response was observed upon drug treatment. It has shown potential in application for early diagnosis of diseases.

<Your impression & future plan>
It's my great honor to receive this award. I feel very grateful to Prof. Takai and other lab members. I will go on to expand my research in the future.
