Dr. Pandey, an experimental biophysicist, has focused his research in nanobiophysics, developing methods for using nanopipettes to manipulate materials at molecular scale. His continued work with Dr. Jin He’s Nano-Bio Research Lab and the Translational Molecular Discoveries program will use nanopipettes to perform surgical operations on single cells, gaining insights into the heterogeneity of genetics and structures within a cell. This minimally invasive and cost-effective approach to studying cells could also make it easier to study diseases and treatments.
Dr. Pandey is a 2020-21 FIU CASE Distinguished Postdoctoral Scholar.
