Research Interests
Our research focuses on two main themes:
1. Bio-MEMS. We design novel microsystems-based tools that spatially and chemically control the cell microenvironment for quantitative biology.
2. Cryo-EM of cells. We develop new technologies for molecular-scale imaging of cells with programmed cytoskeletal tension, traction stress distributions, and substrate topography.
