Dr. Michael Kevin Brown's lab focuses on developing new methods for the synthesis of complex organic molecules, which is vital for producing pharmaceuticals. The team works on innovative chemical reactions that can create multiple bonds and stereocenters in a single step, making the process of drug synthesis more efficient. Their research aims to improve the ways chemists can construct challenging molecular structures that are important for drug development.

Dr. Stephen C. Jacobson's lab focuses on developing advanced tools to study viruses, bacteria, and extracellular vesicles at a single-particle level. They use micro- and nanofluidic devices to gain insights into these biological entities, particularly how they behave over time and under different conditions. The research is significant for understanding complex biological processes and could lead to better medical treatments.
