Generate a tailored SOP for Dr. Ghulam Destgeer. Improve your application with a focused, well-structured draft.
Ghulam Destgeer focuses on the development of miniaturized microfluidic 'lab on chip' platforms for the efficient manipulation of micro-objects, cells, particles, droplets, and microorganisms using MHz-frequency acoustic waves. His research also encompasses newly envisioned 'lab on particle' technology for fabricating 3D, multi-material, amphiphilic, shape-coded particles, which can spontaneously form hundreds of particle-templated drops for single cell and molecule analysis within seconds. He studied mechanical engineering at GIK Institute, Pakistan, earning his Bachelor degree in 2010, and attained both a Master’s and PhD in acousto-microfluidics from KAIST, South Korea, in 2018. Subsequently, he conducted postdoctoral research at the Di Carlo Lab at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA). In November 2020, he joined Translational Research at TUM as a Tenure Track Assistant Professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, where he leads the research group 'Control Manipulation of Microscale Living Objects.'
