A huge congratulations to Tuna Berk Tufan and Miriam Centella, who both graduated this May! Tuna earned his Ph.D. in Electrical and Computer Engineering, capping off years of great work on wearable, noninvasive sensors for monitoring respiratory function. Miriam earned her M.S. in Electrical and Computer Engineering as a Fulbright-SENACYT scholar, bringing her biomedical engineering focus to the lab. So proud of you both — can’t wait to see what’s next!Read More →

We’ve filed a new patent application, “Miniaturized Continuous Transcutaneous Carbon Dioxide and Peripheral Oxygen Saturation Monitoring Wearable” (US Patent App. 19/368,711), with Tuna Tufan and Isil Isiksalan. Congratulations to the team!Read More →

Congratulations to Evan Haas, who received the Provost’s MQP Award for his Major Qualifying Project, “Layout of an Oxygen Measurement IC for Wearable Applications”! Great work, Evan — well deserved!Read More →

I’m thrilled to share that our lab is part of a new ARPA-H funded project, “Self-Powered, Transmitting Lacrimal Artificial Sensor (SPoT-LAS),” also known as OcuLab, led by Prof. Michael Strano at MIT, with co-PIs Anantha Chandrakasan and Tomas Palacios. I’ll be serving as Co-Investigator on the WPI subaward. Excited for this collaboration!Read More →

I’m honored to share that I’ve been named one of the Boston Business Journal‘s 2026 Innovators in Healthcare! I was recognized alongside 13 other honorees at an event in Boston on February 12, and BBJ also featured me in an online profile about our lab’s work developing wearable sensors for at-home and improved patient monitoring. You can read the profile here.Read More →

I’d like to thank Analog Devices Inc. (ADI) for their continued support of our project, “Exploration of Transcutaneous Oxygen Sensor,” now entering its sixth consecutive year of funding since 2021. We’re grateful for this ongoing partnership!Read More →

I’m excited to share that our team has received a new NIH/NHLBI grant for “ENHANCE-O2: ENsuring High Accuracy in Noninvasive Clinical Evaluation of Oxygenation.” I’ll be serving as Co-Investigator on this WPI subaward, working with lead PI Dr. Ashraf Fawzy at Johns Hopkins University.Read More →
