Congratulations to Director Natalia Rodriguez for being awarded the 2023 NIH Director’s New Innovator Award! #NIHHighRisk #Scientists #Research #HTQLab #Purdue purdue.edu/hhs/news/2023/…

This project brings me immense joy. What began as a failed experiment in my 2nd year lead to an amazing story of material engineering. I had SO much fun doing science with my co-lead author Gauri_Bhave , filled with creativity and laughter. Science is truly a human endeavor.

Linnes Lab is at #BMES2023 in force this year! Come check out the awesome talks and posters!

Thrilled to share EVEscape in its final form and grateful to all coauthors, collaborators and reviewers! nature.com/articles/s4158…

Want to help make cancer care more equitable in the US and globally? Join our team! Rice360 is excited to join NIH's Point-of-Care Technology Research Network (POCTRN)! We're hiring a new Program Manager: emdz.fa.us2.oraclecloud.com/hcmUI/Candidat…

Rice bioengineer Rebecca Kortum is helping lead a collaboration across three continents to establish a research center in the Texas Medical Center to develop affordable, effective point-of-care technologies to improve early cancer detection in low-resource settings. bit.ly/3QAogt9

"While early detection and treatment of #cancer can improve survival, available tests for early #cancerdetection are too complex or too expensive for hospitals and clinics in medically underserved areas," Rice360's Rebecca Kortum said. news.rice.edu/news/2023/rice… #cancerresearch

What a whirlwind week at the 2024 Bioanalytical Sensors GRC! Loved hearing about all the cool science this community is doing and so excited about the future of all this research. Also I was 1 of 2 postdocs chosen to give a talk, and loved getting to share some of my science! 🥳

Grateful for funding and support from ITHS as we work to move our microfluidic devices from the lab to remote settings.
