Welcome to Zhao Lab! Our laboratory is affiliated with the Department of Biomedical Engineering at the The Ohio State University. Our studies focus on interdisciplinary research by applying micro/nano engineering principles in biomedical and clinical applications for improving human health. We design, fabricate and characterize micro/nano total analysis systems utilizing new fabrication technologies and materials.

Latest Lab News Nov 2012:   Hansong Zeng, one of our lab alumni, has won a total of $1.6 million industrial research fund in his industrial position as the principal investigator within nine months of graduation. Congratulations, Hansong! Aug 2012:   Kang Wei, a 3rd year doctoral student, has won the best poster award in 2012 Ohio State Biomedical Engineering Conference for his work entitled "A 3D Artificial Compound Eye for Directional and Wide-angle Imaging". Congratulations! Aug 2012:   Hansong Zeng, one of our lab alumni, received his first SBIR grant from US Army as the principal investigator. Hansong Zeng worked in our lab from Oct 2007 and received his doctoral degree in 2012. He has published nine journal papers in the areas of biomedical micro/nanotechnologies and medical devices during his doctoral study. Following his graduation, he has worked as a medical device research&commercialization engineer at Sentient Inc. This was his first submission of SBIR proposal as a PI. He is well deserved for this award. Congratulations! Apr 2012:   Xu Zhang won the HHMI Med into Grad Scholarship for his project on treating LV hypertrophy and heart failure with physical exercise.
