RESEARCH
  Virtual Research Community

  Macquarie University
09/2007—Current
I am currently developing microfluidic devices for blood and microbial separation at Macquarie University in Sydney Australia.
 
  Princeton University
02/2002—07/2007
Development of microfabricated magnetic cell separator and microfabricated size based cell separator. Joint projects between the Electrical Engineering, Physics, and Molecular Biology departments at Princeton University, and the Immunology Department at the New York State Department of Health, supervised by professors J.C. Sturm and R.H. Austin. Has required use of 12 IC fabrication machines at 3 separate facilities.
