Research

The research in the MAD Lab focuses on developing engineered tools for improving healthcare and patient outcomes. We are motivated to develop affordable point-of-care diagnostics and analytical tools to make healthcare accessible to all, and to develop new bioanalytical tools to help unravel the pathophysiology of diseases.

The group has four project areas: (i) development of affordable point-of-care diagnostics to make healthcare accessible to all, (ii) development of wearable devices and textile-based sensors for detection of markers in sweat, (iii) use of fluorous compounds as novel materials for designing sensors with improved selectivity and response time, (iv) designing neural probes for in vivo measurement of acetylcholine dynamics in the brain (important in Alzheimer’s disease and other neurodegenerative diseases)
