Research Interests Analytical Sensors, Biomaterials & Nanoparticle Therapeutics Our research is focused on four main areas: 1) designing macromolecular nitric oxide release vehicles as novel therapeutics; 2) improving the analytical performance of implantable continuous glucose monitoring devices for diabetes management; 3) designing microfluidic nitric oxide, NO, sensors for real-time detection of NO in biological media; and, 4) developing superhydrophobic interfaces for mold prevention and remediation. In the Schoenfisch Lab, we work at the interface of analytical chemistry, materials science, biomedical engineering, and biology. The types of multi-disciplinary research opportunities that are available include studies of therapeutics to treat various diseases; sensors that function reliably and continuously, real time, to facilitate disease management; microelectrode and microfluidic sensor design and fabrication for clinical, point-of-care, and diagnostic/prognostic applications; and, new macromolecular scaffolds that manipulate biology and physiology.
