AB  - The interaction of nanomaterials with cells and lipid bilayers is critical in 
      many applications such as phototherapy, imaging, and drug/gene delivery. These 
      applications require a firm control over nanoparticle-cell interactions, which 
      are mainly dictated by surface properties of nanoparticles. This critical Review 
      presents an understanding of how synthetic and natural chemical moieties on the 
      nanoparticle surface (in addition to nanoparticle shape and size) impact their 
      interaction with lipid bilayers and cells. Challenges for undertaking a 
      systematic study to elucidate nanoparticle-cell interactions are also discussed.
