About
We are an interdisciplinary lab working at the boundary between electronics and biosystems. On the one hand, we learn and borrow from biological designs to construct electronic sensors, devices, and integrated systems that are more biomimetic and efficient. On the other hand, we harness these developed electronics in turn to create a better interface to biosystems for improved detection, diagnosis, and communication.
