Maddie Chen presented her research poster at the 2019 Undergraduate Research Symposium on May 14, 2019. Maddie's research poster is entitled "Modeling Fluid-Particle and Induced Particle-Particle Interactions in the Transport of Rectangular Particles in Microchannel Flow". Maddie is working with doctoral student Ray Yeung on this work. This work is also in collaboration with Professors...
Professor Rodgers has been invited to present a presentation entitled "On Becoming a Biomedical Engineer" at CSULB on March 29, 2019. His presentation is part of the BUILD (Building Infrastructure Leading to Diversity) Student Training Core Team at California State University, Long Beach. The overall goal of CSULB BUILD is to strengthen and develop a...
Ray presented his latest work entitled "Modeling Particle-Particle Interactions In The Transport Of Non-Spherical Particles In Microfluidic Channels" at the BMES Annual Meeting on Thursday, October 18, 2018 in the "Micro/Nano Fluidic Engineering and Lab-on-Chip Systems" session as part of the Nano and Micro Technologies track from 9:30am - 5:00pm. Ray's work is also co-authored...
On September 13, 2018, Professor Rodgers reviewed the potential of the Osmotic Transport Device (OTD) for reducing brain swelling and delivering therapeutics for severe stroke patients at the City of Hope, Argyros Faculty Research Forum.
In Chris' research, he successfully developed an Osmotic Transport Device (OTD) to reduce cerebral edema in the rat model in his interdisciplinary research with Professor Devin Binder in the School of Medicine. He also successfully developed a concentrating osmometer to produce osmotic pressure profiles from one sample. Chris also showed that, in the crowded protein...
Our manuscript entitled "Interrogating the Osmotic Pressure of Self-Crowded Bovine Serum Albumin Solution: Implications of Specific Monovalent Anion Effects Relative to the Hofmeister Series" is published in The Journal of Physical Chemistry B, an ACS Publication, J. Phys. Chem B. 2018, 122 (33), pp. 8037-8040. We are excited about this work as it demonstrates the...
