In Vitro Methods Lab

The In Vitro Methods (Duane Juang) Lab focuses on developing novel, enabling tools at the intersection of engineering, chemistry, and biology to address pressing challenges in human health. We harness various physical phenomena (fluidics, magnetics) and chemistries (surface chemistry, biomolecular chemistry) to create simple and accessible tools to further biological discovery or advance medical diagnostics. We aim to develop high-throughput functional screening tools for the discovery of novel antibiotics, as well as better and more accessible technologies for disease diagnostics at the point-of-care.
