I work in the Shi Lab [1] at The University of Texas at Austin. I learned about OpenWetWare from Steve Koch, and I've joined in hopes of getting feedback on my biomethods, as well as kindling potential collaborations.

Education

• 2014 (expected), PhD, The University of Texas at Austin
• 2011, MSE, The University of Texas at Austin
• 2009, BSME, The University of Portland

Research interests

1. "In vitro" flow systems to replicate aspects of in vivo vasculature
2. Nanoparticle drug delivery
3. Artificial 3-D tumor models
4. Nanopore particulate qualification using impedance-based sensing
