Wendy Krauser received her BSE in biomedical engineering from Mercer University (Macon, GA) in 2003. Prior to joining V.M. Bright's group, she gained hands-on experience doing molecular biology research while working at the Bone and Signaling Laboratory at NASA Ames Research Center (Moffett Field, CA) and attained a graduate certificate in space sciences from the University of Southern Australia (Adelaide, South Australia). At the University of Colorado at Boulder, she originally entered as an aerospace engineering graduate student, but transferred into the mechanical engineering department to join the CU MEMS group and the field of micro- and nanotechnologies. Wendy's unique interdisciplinary background sparked her interest in the integration of micro- and nanotechnologies to improve medical diagnostics and to advance the basic life sciences. She is currently a doctoral student.
In collaboration with Dr. John Moreland at the National Institute of Standards and Technologies (NIST), Wendy is developing micro- and nanofluidics chips to magnetically manipulate single biomolecules such as DNA.
