MY NAME IS
STEVE SHIH
I’m building labs that fit in your pocket.
Imagine creating a device that’s capable of testing for diseases. Now, imagine that device is the size of the plastic card you use to pay for your morning coffee.
I build microfluidics — or “lab-on-a-chip” technology. By manipulating very small volumes of fluid, we have a powerful tool that allows us to perform several medical tests in one shot, and address challenging problems in health care.
My name is Steve Shih and I am an assistant professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering and a member of the Centre for Applied Synthetic Biology.
