In this talk, I will provide an overview of the scientific and technological challenges behind biosensor development. I will then discuss the progress made in our lab towards designing and prototyping new hierarchical materials for biosensing, integration of these materials into electrochemical and photoelectrochemical sensors, and the clinical translation of such biosensors. I will also discuss RepelWrap, a smart surface technology that has emerged as a result of our work on creating functional anti-fouling materials for biosensing.
