Angelo Gaitas, PhD
About Me
Dr. Gaitas earned a PhD in electrical engineering (microsystems) from Delft University of Technology in the Netherlands. He holds a Masters in Mesoscopic Physics from the University of London - Royal Holloway, and an M.B.A. from the University of Wisconsin, Madison.
His main research interests are in micro- and nano- devices for biological, biomedical and chemical applications. He has additional interests in studying effects at the micro- and nano- scales. Examples include: nanoscale temperature measurements of biological systems, improvements on existing techniques using micro- and nano- technologies such as patch clamping, and organ-on-a-chip applications. His group has been funded by NSF and NIH.
