What excites me about working at CFH is the ability to work closely with clinicians in order to target sensor applications that will genuinely improve health care.

Biography

Prof. Lewis Rothberg does research in organic device science and technology and is a member of the Chemistry and Chemical Engineering departments. His work involves the use of organic materials to make displays, transistors and biological sensors. He is a physicist by training and collaborates with Prof. Benjamin Miller and others at the Center to design new ways to sense biomolecular binding events and use these to revolutionize microarray sensing technology. He is particularly interested in developing optical and impedimetric methods of sensing that do not involve fluorescent or radioactive tagging chemistry and can be implemented with very low cost.
