ABOUT ME
What makes a cancer therapy effective, and how can we build better tools to find out?
I am a PhD candidate in Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Georgia, co-advised by Dr. Leidong Mao (CENG) and Dr. Lohitash Karumbaiah (CAES). My research combines microfluidics, tumor biology, biomaterials, and quantitative analysis to study therapeutic responses in glioblastoma.
From vascularized tumor-on-chip systems to controlled drug delivery, I develop experimental platforms that connect the physical design of a model with the biological questions it can answer.
