Biography

Jason Gleghorn joined the Micro/Nanofluidics Laboratory in December of 2007 after completing a Ph.D. in Biomedical Engineering from Cornell University. Jason is a member of the Biomedical Engineering Society, Tau Beta Pi, Pi Tau Sigma, and Order of Omega.


Current Projects

Current projects include the development of microdevices for the optimized capture of circulating prostate tumor cells from blood through manipulation of the fluidic environment and surface conjugation of PSMA specific antibodies. In addition, other projects utilize photo-polymerization technologies and manipulation of the electrokinetic microenvironment to investigate mamalian cell responses for tissue engineering applications.
