BMES 2018

Erol Ozgur presented a talk entitled, “Rapid, Label-free, and Ultra-Sensitive Detection of Urine hCG Using Frequency-locked On-chip Optical Microcavities” at BMES 2018 in Atlanta, Georgia. The contributing authors were Erol Ozgur, Kara Roberts, Ekin Ozgur, Adley Gin, Jaden Bankhead, and Judith Su. This project was funded by the Partnership for Clean Competition.

Scialog Fellow meeting in Tucson, AZ

Judith Su participated in the Scialog Fellow meeting which was organized by the Research Corporation for Science Advancement, the Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation, the Paul G. Allen Frontiers Group, and the National Institutes of Health. The theme of this meeting was on the chemical machinery of the cell. During the meeting, Scialog Fellows participate in writing collaborative proposals.

 

New NSF grant awarded

Our lab has just received a new grant from NSF to carry out pilot research on real-time high precision spectroscopy. Our lab is constantly seeking new talent and at this time would especially welcome postdoctoral researchers.

Defense Threat Reduction Agency Grant

Our lab together with Euan McLeod’s group from Optical Sciences and Brian Stoltz’s group from Chemistry, Caltech has just been awarded a $1.86 M three year grant from the Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA) to carry out research on chemical threat sensing. We have immediate opportunities for several postdocs. If you know of any talented and motivated postdoctoral researchers who may be suitable, please ask them to contact me at judyAToptics.arizona.edu
