The mission of our lab is to build self-contained microsystems that will combine and process natural signals (such as bio, chemical, optical and thermal signals) as well as electrical signals on a single chip platform by integrating new MEMS/nano structures with low-power, wireless VLSI circuits and systems. Currently, we have three main research thrusts: microfluidic systems, MEMS neural interfaces, and CMOS imaging and neural interfacing ICs.
