I am humbled and honored to have been named a Senior Member of the National Academy of Inventors. It is a privilege to be among such a distinguished group of innovators. I am grateful to all my students and collaborators for their contributions which made this recognition possible.

We are extremely proud of Mychal Trznadel for successfully passing his final MS Exam yesterday. Congratulations, Mychal!

Proud advisor moment! It was a true honor to hood Dr. Nicholus Clinkinbeard this evening at the Iowa State University Fall 2024 Commencement Ceremony.

Honored to be invited to present our research on on-chip characterization of microorganisms using hydrodynamic focusing and integrated optics at the OptoFluidiX 2025 Conference, taking place September 16-18, 2025, in Leipzig, Germany. Thank you, Andrea Kramer, for the invitation!

Our study explores how pharmaceutical agents such as naltrexone (NTX) and 6β-naltrexol cross the placental barrier and affect fetal neural cells. We have shown that exposure to NTX/6β-naltrexol alters gene expression in neural cells, reducing cell viability. www.linkedin.com/posts/iet-jo...

Congratulations to Dr. Nicholus Clinkinbeard, our newest PhD! It was a true honor to have him as part of our lab-while simultaneously at Collins Aerospace-where he applied his creativity and diligence to the implementation of neural networks in the autonomous manufacturing of microstructures.

Thanks @statnews.bsky.social for highlighting our NSF Mid-CAREER Advancement www.statnews.com/2024/06/13/p...

Excited about our new AFOSR grant to explore the processing of soft matter systems. #manufacturing #research #collaboration #microfluidics

Preprint Alert!! Our latest work: Inkject Printed Graphene Microelectrodes for Real-Time Impedance Spectroscopy of Neural Cells in Organ-on-a-Chip

In our new #NSFfunded #researchpaper, we present rapid #manufacturing of alginate/graphene hollow microfibers for modeling diseases and injuries. Available free: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/... #WomensHealth #celltherapy #engineering

I am happy to announce that our lab has received an #NSF Mid-CAREER Advancement award to support research on #PlacentaonaChip. I am grateful to current and former lab members who worked incredibly hard to make this award a reality. #MCA www.nsf.gov/awardsearch/...
