Microfluidics for Synthetic Biology

Our goal in the CIDAR lab is to take a multidisciplinary approach to making microfluidics more accessible and help overcome the testing bottleneck of synthetic biology. The various projects range from building CAD tools, embedded hardware, developing manufacturing protocols, and building novel biological screening platforms.

Current Projects
