Title:  Nano-Newton Force Transduction using Soft Sensors

Dr. Lam

Abstract:

The objective of the proposed research is to develop piezoresistive sensing platforms for high-throughput force measurement of single blood platelets.  In particular, a piezoresistive transducer embedded in a soft biocompatible polymer will be developed that features nN force resolution in an ultra-small form factor appropriate for blood platelets.  This project will aim to develop a device which could be replicated in a large array and connected to proper electronics to allow measurement of thousands of cells in a matter of seconds.
