Welcome to Our LabThe Lab of Micro- and Nanotechnology for Diagnostics and Biology at Lehigh's University is estabilishe by prof. Xuanhong Cheng in January 2008. The lab is focused on developing new nano-materials and microfluidic platforms that can be used to analyze intact, live bioparticles, such as cells and pathogens at the point of need. These technologies are also expected to advance fundamental understanding of cell function and pathogen transmission.
