This project aims to engage under-represented undergraduate students in the Living Matter Lab's research through a series of online workshops and hands-on sessions, as well as guides participants through finding good graduate programs and the application process.

Mirela Alistar, assistant professor of computer science and the director of the ATLAS Institute’s Living Matter Lab, wants to make healthcare more personal with microfluidic biochips.

At a time when the field of human-computer interaction is becoming more important than ever, ATLAS researchers are making substantial contributions, contributing nine papers and two workshops to CHI '20.

Making healthcare more affordable, effective and personal is one of the greatest challenges of our time. Directed by Assistant Professor Mirela Alistar, the Living Matter Lab is rising to that challenge.

A new approach to microfluidics holds promise for home diagnostics and other applications.

Mirela Alistar, assistant professor at the ATLAS Institute, developed an algorithm to translate the story of a women's memory into a DNA sequence. Preserving information through encoding and decoding binary data to and from synthesized DNA strands holds the promise of putting huge amounts of information into tiny molecules.
