NanoCellect Biomedical is a life sciences start-up company that develops lab-on-a-chip flow cytometers for researchers and clinicians. Flow cytometry is a device used for cellular or particle analysis with a broad market base and has long been an important tool in diagnostic and life science research labs.- Oversees R&D activities and Product Development- R&D Projects, Intellectual Properties (IP) development- Principal Investigator of several NIH SBIR Phase 1 & 2 projects- 16 SBIR grants awarded (from NIGMS, NCI, NCRR, NIBIB, NIDA)

The ISAC Marylou Ingram Scholars program is designed to enhance the scientific and leadership experiences of emerging leaders in the field of cytometry. The program provides opportunities for leadership training, presentation opportunities, financial support for membership of the Society, as well as other valuable mentoring activities.http://isac-net.org/News/Society/2012-ISAC-Scholars.aspx(1) Membership Service Committee (MSC) at ISAC(2) Annual CYTO conference program organizing committee and session co-chairs

We develop lab-on-a-chip devices combining microfluidics, photonics, and acoustics for diagnosis and health monitoring as well as fundamental biomedical research. The former include HIV/AIDS detection, early stage cancer diagnosis, leukemia and whole blood analysis; and the latter include biospecimen purification, adult stem cell separation, single-cell sequencing, human microbiome, cancer research, to name a few. The core technology is to develop a single-chip micro-FACS (fluorescence-activated-cell-sorter) with single-cell separation capability at one thousandth of the size and weight of the current system. We are in collaboration with UCSD Bioengineering Department, Institute of Engineering in Medicine (IEM), School of Medicine, and Cancer Center on this research.

The West Health Institute is an independent, non-profit 501(c)(3) medical research organization whose mission is to lower health care costs by developing innovative patient-centered solutions that deliver the right care at the right place at the right time.
