Research Summary
I have interdisciplinary expertise and interest in fields of Biology, Materials and Engineering. My current research interests are in developing biosensors, point-of-care devices and hybrid brain-computer systems by using nano/micro-technologies (MEMS, microelectrode array, microfluidics etc.) and biotechnologies (stem cells, 3D organoid, lab on a chip etc.) for the “from bench to bedside/market” translational research.
Biography
