Biological Microtechnology and BioMEMS Group

Biological Microtechnology and BioMEMS Group

ABOUT THE GROUP
The RLE Biological Microtechnology and BioMEMS Group performs research on micro-electro-mechanical systems, applying microfabrication technology to illuminate biological systems, especially at the cellular level. Specifically, the group works to develop technologies that enhance or enable the acquisition of information from cells. The group's research builds upon various disciplines: electrical engineering, microfabrication, bioengineering, surface science, fluid mechanics, mass transport, etc. The group takes a quantitative approach to designing technology, using both analytical and numerical modeling to gain fundamental understanding of the technologies that created. The group then takes its designs through microfabrication to packaging and testing and to biological assay.
