During #HDM2024 , Dr Akbarsha Mohammad (National College, Tiruchirappalli) advocated for a shift to human based models like organoids, organ-on-chip & microfluidics as biological & species differences make commonly used animal models inappropriate for understanding human diseases.

Take a look at Adrisha & Zack's work developing a flow-based high-precision chemical detection method by integrating quantum sensing w/ droplet microfluidics. Droplets encapsulate ND quantum sensors & analytes to measure analytes w/ low LOD.(1/6) #NMRchat

And we surrounded the sun with another academic year, submitted papers, presented at conferences, taught a new cohort of #BioMEMS students #microfluidics , overcame #research and #tool challenges, and #met over delicious food many times. Next up: Finals week & summer research!

New preprint from the lab📢 We wrote a short report that describes how to make low-cost microfluidics devices. Are they as good as molded elastomer devices? No. But they're pretty great within their domain (~ 1mm lower bound on channel width). 1/2 #CellBiology #Microscopy

Professor Moran Bercovic from Technion discusses fluid mechanics in microfluidics, space, and vision enhancement on the Lexicon Podcast, highlighting its impact on eyesight and space exploration.

Just had a great time at the microfluidics conference in Ann Arbor! I had no idea that there are fluidic correlates of electric circuitry components (like a fluidic transistor).

More posters! This time from some of my research students. Very proud 😊 Myrine even won an award for excellence in PhD research and got a fellowship to spend her summer at Earth-Life Science Institute (ELSI) 地球生命研究所 learning advanced microfluidics techniques. So jealous! UTRGV Division of Research #astrobiology
