Chirality is an essential property of nature. The emergence of chiral material in nanoscale has shown great promise in the investigation of biological interfaces, chiral optical devices, metamaterials and the origin of chirality. In the present study, we focused on fabricating chiral nanoprobes and their applications in living systems. Through precise synthesis or the self‐assembly of various chiral configurations, significant research achievements have been obtained by our group. In this brief introduction, we will discuss the recent progress of chiral nanostructures in the selective recognition of biomolecules, ultrasensitive detection and their interaction with living cells.
