2021 Recipient
Nathan S. Swami
Nathan Swami serves as Professor of Electrical
& Computer Engineering at the University of Virginia, with joint
appointments in Chemistry and the Cancer Center departments. His research group
specializes in development of label-free microfluidic devices for
biofabrication, biophysical single-cell isolation for phenotypic analysis and for
integration with nanoconfinement to enable signal amplification for biomolecular
sensing. Prior to University of Virginia, he served on the scientific staff of
the MEMS group at Motorola Labs and at Clinical Microsensors, Inc., a Caltech
start-up interfacing microelectronics to bio-analysis. He seeks to impact
diagnostic systems within point-of-care and resource-poor settings for enabling
precision medicine. More information on his research is at: https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=iS12HRMAAAAJ&hl=en
