Research:

Our understanding of biological systems critically depend on the tools available to analyze biomolecules and sub-cellular biological components. Advances in modern biology generally coincide with breakthroughs in our ability to separate and identify the target biomolecules out of a highly complex intracellular milieu of diverse biomolecules. The Micro/Nanofluidic BioMEMS group’s research is focused at developing new tools and technologies for biomolecule separation and analysis using advanced microfluidics and nanofluidics.
