Seminars in Biomedical Engineering

Speaker: Elliot E. Hui, Ph.D., Assistant Professor of Biomedical Engineering at the University of California, Irvine

Talk Title: TBA

Biography: Elliot E. Hui is Assistant Professor of Biomedical Engineering at the University of California, Irvine. He received the bachelor’s degree in Physics from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and the Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering from the University of California, Berkeley. Following his doctoral work in microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) under Roger Howe, he trained as an NIH Kirschstein fellow in the laboratory of Sangeeta Bhatia at MIT, where he developed MEMS tools to probe cell-cell interactions in the liver.

In 2008, he joined the faculty at UC Irvine. His research group employs tools such as MEMS, microfluidics, and optogenetics to control biological systems dynamically at the microscale. His interests include tumor progression and stem cell differentiation as well as point-of-care diagnostics. He is a member of the Center for Complex Biological Systems, the Edwards Lifesciences Center for Advanced Cardiovascular Technology, and the Chao Family Comprehensive Cancer Center.
