Research
Engineering efficient technologies for delivering high-performance healthcare management.
Molecular Diagnostics
We develop point- of - care molecular diagnostic tests to enable rapid, facile and early detection of disease propagation, patient centered care and outbreak mitigation.
Wearable Biosensors
We develop biosensors that can track the molecular level of biomarkers when worn by people. These molecular "Lab on Body" devices empowers the current capacity of wearable technology.
Tissue Engineering
We develop free standing flexible electronic sensors and actuators to enable tissue engineering, drug discovery and therapeutic application.
