Christine Smothers
Christine worked at the Nanobioengineering lab led by Dr. Chenzhong Li to explore various methods related to culturing and characterizing cardiomyocytes (heart cells). While at FIU, she was mentored by Maedeh Mozneb and learned about a wide variety of bioengineering techniques, such as cell culture, electrochemistry, and surface plasmon resonance. She also collaborated with lab […]
Dennis Ramos Trinidad
In 2019, Dennis Ramos Trinidad joined the Li Lab with Maedeh Mozneb as mentor. In this role, he studied 3D porous scaffolds fabrication for the implementation of cell culture. It targeted the development of optical based oxygen, ATP and Glucose biosensors for application in 3D tissue constructs while monitoring them in real time
