Research in this laboratory encompasses cost-effective body-fluid diagnostics, single cell level cancer research, and the development of micro-miniature implantable sensors for glucose and electrolytes for use by diabetic patients and NASA astronauts. Research collaborations with laboratories in the Department of Physiology and Biophysics, Chemical Engineering, and the Microfabrication Laboratory enhance both research and education in biomedical sensing, and related areas of science and engineering. Industrial collaborations with Vision Sensors LLC, Biomec Inc., and Cleveland Medical Devices Inc., close the loop from the inception of new ideas to the development of new products for health care and research applications.
