Educational Background
- Ph.D., Biomedical Engineering, Texas A&M University – 1999
Research Interests
-
Research areas: Biosensors, biomaterials, biomedical optics, micro/nanotechnology, point-of-care technology
Dr. Mike McShane's laboratory focuses on the modeling, design, fabrication
and testing of small-scale analytical devices, particularly photoluminescent biosensors.McShane’s research and educational activities cover many areas of biomedical engineering, including biomaterials, molecular biology, biomedical optics,
biotransport ,bioinstrumentation , signal processing and medical device design.McShane’s laboratory produces and tests sensor systems using microscale and nanoscale fabrication approaches of self-assembly and photolithography as well as develops strategies for deploying these in vitro and in vivo. Examples of current technologies include hybrid polymer-protein-dye materials shaped into nanoparticles, microparticles, microcapsules and microstructured systems for “smart” sensing implants.
