1351253 - GagnonThe overall goal of this Faculty Early Career Development (CAREER) Program grant is to develop inexpensive and portable biosensors for rapid, sensitive and specific label-free multiplexed biomolecular detection. The possibility of miniaturizing biosensing systems which use miniscule quantities of expensive reagents and precious samples, provide faster analyses to patients and doctors, and do not require a trained technician to operate has immediate applications in preventing disease in developing countries, biowarfare/anti-terrorism applications, environmental monitoring, point-of-care diagnostic testing and for basic biological research.A major obstacle towards accomplishing this goal is the lack of an available biosensor that is rapid, sensitive and specific to small concentrations of target biomolecules, yet does not require the labeling of probes or optical microscopy, and can operate without the need for complex and bulky supporting instrumentation. This project will address existing challenges by focusing on the development of novel electrokinetic biosensors for biomolecular detection at liquid interfaces.

1351253 - GagnonThe这个教师早期职业发展（CAREER）计划补助金的总体目标是开发廉价和便携式生物传感器，用于快速，灵敏和特定的无标记多路复用生物分子检测。生物传感系统使用极少量的昂贵试剂和珍贵样品，为患者和医生提供更快的分析，并且不需要训练有素的技术人员操作，这种生物传感系统的可能性在发展中国家的疾病预防、生物战/反恐应用、环境监测、实现这一目标的主要障碍是缺乏一种可用的生物传感器，对小浓度的目标生物分子敏感和特异，但不需要标记探针或光学显微镜，并且可以在不需要复杂和庞大的支持仪器的情况下操作。该项目将通过专注于开发用于液体界面生物分子检测的新型电动生物传感器来解决现有的挑战。
