Interdisciplinary Research Groups
Biosensors and Biological Surfaces
Biomedical sensors are the interface between medical electronic instrumentation and physiologic systems. Researchers are concerned with the development of biomedical sensors based on microfabrication technology, the design and evaluation of instrumentation systems utilizing these sensors, and application of these instrumentation systems to clinically important biomedical problems. Scientists investigate the interaction between sensors and the biologic host organism and how these interactions affect sensor and instrument performance. Resources include computational facilities used to model cardiac arrhythmia, and a new 2,500 sq. ft. biosensor laboratory with capabilities for design, testing and fabrication of chemical and biosensors.
