Welcome to the 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 October 2011:   Two 2nd year BME doctoral student, Xu Zhang and Kang Wei received National Science Foundation (NSF) travel awards to present their work at the 2011 ASME International Mechanical Engineering Congress and Exposition to be held Nov 11-17 at Denver, CO. Xu will present the work entitled "Spatially Controllable Deposition of Electrosprayed Microparticles". Kang will present the work entitled "Non-Cleanroom and Maskless Fabrication of Polymeric Nanostructures Using Electric Discharge". Their applications were peer-reviewed by a jury of faculty members and professional mechanical engineers. The award decisions were based on the scientific strengths of their work and the personal statements describing their professional developments. Congratulations!
