Paul C.H. Li Ph.D.
Paul C.H. Li, Ph.D is Associate Professor at Simon Fraser University, (British Columbia) Dr. Li's group are interested in carrying out various chemical and biochemical analysis which are enhanced by the use of microfluidic devices. Dr Li's group is particularly focused on:* Separation and analysis of bioactive compounds derived from natural sources, e.g. licorice. * Analysis of various compounds based on contraction of cardiac muscle cells detected by an acoustic wave sensor. * Analysis of various compounds based on their effect on the NFkB signalling pathway in Jurkat T cells using an EGFP reporter. Their research goals are: * To enhance various chemical and biochemical analysis by miniaturization so that analysis can be achieved in shorter time and with less reagents, * To integrate these processes on-chip based on various microchip layout designs and various detection methodologies, and * To develop cell-based analysis on-chip for testing of various compounds for drug screening and discovery.

Related ContentUCLA Team Develops Graphene-Based SupercapacitorResearchers at University of California at Los Angeles (UCLA) have developed a supercapacitor or electrochemical capacitor (EC) composed of an expanded network of graphene — a one-atom-thick layer of graphitic carbon. The team demonstrated excellent mechanical and electrical properties as well as exceptionally high surface area.
Graphene: Synthesis and Applications: Author InterviewAs the nanocommunity celebrates the year since the pioneers of graphene won the Nobel Prize, NanoScienceWorks.org speaks with the co-editor of Graphene: Synthesis and Applications. This is first comprehensive book to look at the exciting industrial properties and promises of graphene’s planar sheet. Prof. Wonbong Choi is the Director of Nanomaterials & Device Laboratory at Florida International University’s Department of Mechanical and Materials Engineering.
Rice University Opens Graphene for Organic ChemistryRice University researchers have found a highly controllable way to attach organic molecules to pristine graphene. The work opens the door for a new class of chemical sensors, thermoelectric devices and metamaterials.
