Welcome to
Min Research Group

We are developing the next generation of wearable, ingestible, and implantable platforms that enable continuous biochemical monitoring and responsive therapy.

Our Research

Our Research Focus

Continuous biochemical sensing

Systems capable of detecting key biomarkers naturally found in bodily fluids

Antifouling strategies

Microfluidic architectures to maintain long-term biocompatibility and performance

Energy-autonomous bioelectronics

Bioelectronic implants and ingestibles that harvest energy from the body or environment

Closed-loop therapeutic integration

Where sensing triggers automated actuation such as precise drug release or electrical stimulation

Opportunities

We welcome graduate students, postdoctoral researchers, undergraduate students, and visiting affiliates from BME, ChemE, MatSE, EE, MechE, or related disciplines.
