Microfluidics, Bioengineering, and Personalized Medicine

How do you fit a whole lab onto a tiny chip? With microfluidics, and scale experiments by the hundreds.

Research focus: The lab develops microfluidic platforms that control cellular environments with high precision while using tiny sample volumes. These chips enable fast, complex, parallel experiments that are hard or impossible with classical lab methods. Engineering meets biology and medicine: tools for studying cells, proteins, and drugs, and for diagnostics and decision support in personalized care (including cancer).

Highlighted takeaway: Smart technology shortens the path from basic science to real medical applications, changing how experiments and therapies are designed.

Methods: Microfluidics · Photolithography · Cell & patient-derived cultures · Advanced fluorescence imaging
