This BU Lab is Turning Living Cells Into Tiny Biosensors
Biotechnology is shrinking to the size of a blueberry at Boston University, where Assistant Professor Miguel Jimenez and his lab are engineering living cell biosensors for health care, agriculture, and other real-world applications.
By [...]integrating cells like yeast and bacteria into microelectronic devices, BU researchers are creating affordable, portable sensors that can detect molecules such as nitrogen in soil or hormones in blood. This innovative biotechnology bridges chemistry, engineering, and biomedicine, turning biological signals into usable data. From precision farming tools to at-home health diagnostics, the team is reimagining how biotechnology works outside the lab.
Potential applications range from soil monitors for precision farming to at-home hormone tests. Jimenez imagines a future where checking molecular information is as easy as checking the weather, putting advanced diagnostics in anyone’s hands.

Electrical Engineering PhD Creates Unique Guitar Pedals
Playing guitar gave John Snyder a respite from long hours babysitting experiments in a clean room in the basement of Boston University’s Photonics Center as he worked toward his doctorate in electrical engineering. A gearhead since high school, [...]Snyder (CAS’14, ENG’20) melded his two interests, designing an effects pedal to use with the band he was playing in. It worked well, so he made a few more and sold them.
