Specifically, microfluidics and Lab-on-Chip can realize applications in detection of disease markers, counting of specific cells from whole blood, and for identification of nucleic acids using sensitive and specific, point-of-care and personalized technologies. The implication of these technologies for advancing personalized medicine for diagnosis of infection and stratification of sepsis would be discussed. Moving up the scale from nanotechnology and microfluidics, 3D bio-fabrication methods for biohybrid polymer devices can also be used to develop instrumented tissues for drug screening and biohybrid robotics.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\r\n\u003Cbr \/\u003E\r\n\u003Cem\u003EBIO\u003C\/em\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\r\nRashid Bashir completed his Ph.D. from Purdue University in Oct. 1992.

Then she moved to European Molecular Biology Laboratories in Heidelberg, Germanyfor her Ph.D. In her Ph.D., Eroglu investigated the structure function relationship of metabotropic glutamate receptors which are G-protein coupled receptors. She found that these receptors directly interact with sterols within the membrane and these lipid-protein interactions regulate the affinity of mGluRs for glutamate. For her postdoctoral studies, Eroglu moved across the globe and joined the lab of Ben Barres, Ph.D., at Stanford. There she studied how astrocyte-secreted Thrombospondins promote formation of excitatory synapses via interacting with the gabapentin receptor Cacna2d-1. In 2008, Eroglu started her lab in Duke University Cell Biology department. The Eroglu lab investigates how astrocytes, and other glial cells, control the formation, maturation and refinement of synaptic circuits.\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n","summary":"","format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003ECagla Eroglu, Ph.D. - Duke University School of Medicine\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n","format":"limited_html"}],"field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"Cagla Eroglu, Ph.D. - Duke University School of Medicine"}],"uid":"35486","created_gmt":"2023-06-21 20:02:40","changed_gmt":"2023-12-08 16:11:33","author":"Christina Wessels","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2024-11-14T11:00:00-05:00","event_time_end":"2024-11-14T12:00:00-05:00","event_time_end_last":"2024-11-14T12:00:00-05:00","gmt_time_start":"2024-11-14 16:00:00","gmt_time_end":"2024-11-14 17:00:00","gmt_time_end_last":"2024-11-14 17:00:00","rrule":null,"timezone":"America\/New_York"},"location":"Petit Biotech Building, Suddath Seminar Room 1128, 315 Ferst Dr. NW, Atlanta, GA 30332","extras":[],"related_links":[{"url":"https:\/\/research.gatech.edu\/bio\/events\/bioengineering-seminar-series","title":"2023-2024 Bioengineering Seminar Series Schedule"}],"groups":[{"id":"1292","name":"Parker H.
