University of New South Wales PhD candidate Ryan Pawell hopes a manufacturing technique he created will cut the cost of medical diagnostics to a few dollars per experiment or test. Pawell’s research includes a technique for making low-cost lab-on-a-chip devices out of plastic, a visual inspection system to ensure the quality and performance of each device made, and an imaging technique for examining how suspended objects like bubbles or cells flow within the devices at over 10,000 frames per second.
