West Virgnia University | Full Professor | capillary electrophoresis and microfluidic separations of biomolecules including glycans, glycoproteins, DNA, metabolites, and hormones
The List
Welcome! This list is a nomination-based, self-updating compendium of principal investigator (PI) level women researchers. We aim to raise the profile of women leading their own laboratories in micro/nanofluidics and BioMEMS (i.e., more senior than postdoctoral scholars). To nominate yourself or multiple colleagues, please visit our ‘Nominate’ page and share the Women in Microfluidics & BioMEMS list with others, especially conference and workshop organizers and program committees. Thank you!
