Our goal is to develop drop-based microfluidic technologies that can improve medical diagnostics and clinical treatments for patients.
Current research projects include the study of bacterial-immune cell interactions, single cell viral sequencing, microfluidic culturomics applied to the gut microbiome, microfabrication of novel devices, hydrogel synthesis, development of diagnostic platforms, cancer therapeutics, and infectious disease diagnostics. Experience or interests in microfluidics, optical microscopy, biomedical engineering, microfabrication, molecular biology, and/or genomics welcome. A background in biomedical or materials engineering, physics, biology, or molecular biology preferred. We value teamwork, promote diversity, collaboration, and respect, and are an inclusive and supportive laboratory.
Works under supervision and may perform some assignments independently as discussed and approved by Principal Investigator.
