After receiving his BS and MS in 1987 and 1990, Bing Xu obtained his PhD in 1996. Notably, Xu lab pioneered the integration of enzyme transformation and self-assembly for developing molecular biomaterials, synthesized the first dimeric nanoparticle consisting of quantum dot and nanomagnet for exploring nanoscience inside cells, reported the first case of using dopamine to anchor molecules on iron oxide surface, and demonstrated the first case of using enzymatic transformation and self-assembly to inhibit cancer cells selectively. Being identified on the Thomson Reuters "highly-cited researchers 2014&2015" list, Bing Xu currently is a professor in the Department of Chemistry, Brandeis University, and his research focuses on the applications of molecular engineering in materials, biology, and medicine.

Maiko Furubayashi is a Postdoctoral Associate in Chris Voigt lab at Massachusetts Institute of Technology. She received her PhD in Engineering from Chiba University in 2014 under the supervision of Daisuke Umeno, working on non-natural pathway construction by directed evolution.
