  my Profile

  Research Interest

  I am African-Colombian and I grew up in Cali-Colombia where I did most of my studies. I earned a B.S. at the Universidad del Valle. I currently lived in Chicago, Illinois where I am pursuing my Ph.D degree at the department of Bioengineering of the University of Illinois at Chicago (UIC). I am also the Associate Editor of the UIC Bioengineering Student Journal. My research interests include MEMS devices for biochemical/mechanical assays and the study of brain function by using microfluidic biochip technology. My long-term career interests are in research at either the industry or academic level, focusing on the development of novel biochip devices to study, understand, enhance or exploit the properties of neural systems.
