The Micro/Nano/Molecular Biotechnology Lab is affiliated with the Departments of Biomedical Engineering and Macromolecular Sciences at the University of Michigan. We specialize in the development of microfluidics and micro/nanotechnology platforms capable of testing cells and subcellular components with combinations of mechanical, chemical, electrical, topographical, and thermal stimuli. We apply combinations of these factors to create physiologically relevant in vitro environments that allow us to better understand cell behavior and function in healthy and diseased states in vivo.
