Biography
Woo Lee is a Professor and Department Director of Stevens Institute of Technology.
Research Interest
My research interest resides with creating new devices using nanotechnology and microfluidics for transformative use. My group is currently exploring two major frontiers of research: (1) microfluidic-based 3D human tissue and tumor models that can be used for preclinical drug evaluation and personalized medicine and (2) wearable graphene oxide (GO)-based biosensors for mobile health. These are student-centric efforts that are aimed at envisioning the transformative use of our ideas. My laboratory has produced five winners of the New Jersey Inventors Hall of Fame Graduate Student Award over the past five consecutive years. One of the students co-founded FlexTraPower in 2013 to commercialize our sensor technology. Also, several undergraduate students perform research every year in my laboratory with notably one of them, David Monteiro, receiving the prestigious Barry Goldwater Scholarship in 2013.
