Research Overview

Our laboratory specializes in the design and development of novel magnetic-based systems exploiting magnetophoresis and magnetohydrodynamics for applications in diagnosis, therapy, and waste-to-resource conversion. More specifically, the GLAMs laboratory has pioneered the integration of magnetic fields within electrochemical systems and new separation processes to convert waste chemicals into fuels and high-value-added products, as well as the fabrication and optimization of magnetophoretic systems with a wide range of applications spanning cell biology, cancer research, and bioseparation processes. We are also interested in the development of novel deep learning algorithms to detect disease progression and cell aging. All these processes and technologies are designed, developed, and optimized using both numerical modeling and experimental approaches. Thus, our students get exposed to and trained in a variety of techniques and research fields.
