 | |Shalini Prasad:
Shalini Prasad received her Bachelor's degree in Electronics and Communication
Engineering from University of Madras in 2000. She then worked for Motorola India
Electronics Limited (MIEL) from 2000-2001 designing cellular telephony interfaces.
She obtained her PhD in Electrical Engineering from University of California Riverside
in 2004. Dr. Prasad's research interests are multi-disciplinary. They include Bio-Micro
Electrical Mechanical Systems (Bio-MEMS), nano-devices and nano/biotechnology. Her current
research interests focus on towards developing "lab-on-a-chip" based devices for sensing
applications that impact such areas as medical diagnostics, the environment, and bio-defense
applications. Her work has been reported in number of peer reviewed journals and popular
press. She is the recipient of a number of awards in the area of nano-biotechnology. Most
recently she has been listed in the 2006-2007 edition of Marquis Who's who in Science
and Engineering. |
