Omar F. Khan
Hi, my name is Omar F. Khan, and I'm currently at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in Professor Robert Langer's lab within the David H. Koch Institute for Integrative Cancer Research. I did my PhD at the University of Toronto under the supervision of Professor Michael V. Sefton.
I work towards the treatment of damaged tissues and organs by combining nanotechnology and tissue engineering. I learned about OpenWetWare from Professor Axel Guenther and served with him on the Toronto Microfluidic Foundry's Process Technology Committee. I've joined because I fabricate microfluidic devices. You can email me through OpenWetWare.
