Research Biomedical Microfluidics

Our research lies at the intersection of acoustics, microfluidics, and biomedicine, where we develop tools to control biological materials from the micro- to nanoscale. We explore how sound waves and microfluidic flow fields can manipulate and trap particles, cells, and extracellular vesicles with high precision. Combining numerical modeling, microfabrication, and experimental validation, we design acoustofluidic platforms that enable new analytical and therapeutic strategies. This interdisciplinary approach bridges fundamental physics and translational biotechnology, advancing applications in diagnostics, drug delivery, and precision medicine. Our work is supported by the European Research Council (ERC) and the Carl-Zeiss-Stiftung (CZS) to develop next-generation acoustofluidic technologies for early cancer theranostics.
