Speaker(s)
Description
Robbyn K. Anand from Iowa State is the 2021 Pittsburgh Conference Achievement Award winner.
Robbyn K. Anand is the Suresh Faculty Fellow at Iowa State University in the Department of Chemistry. The Anand research group has developed methods for single-cell analysis, electrokinetic separations in complex media, and voltammetry at bipolar electrodes. Prof. Anand is the founder of the Midwest Retreat for Diversity in Chemistry.
The Pittsburgh Conference Achievement Award is given annually to a researcher who has made a significant and independent impact in the area of analytical chemistry within the first ten years after his or her doctoral degree.

Encapsulation of individual tumor cells in water-in-oil droplets supports assays that uncover cell-to-cell variations that drive disease progression and treatment outcomes. Obtaining a distribution of gene expression or enzymatic activity among individual cells can identify subpopulations that are resistant to a chemotherapeutic agent or that are particularly invasive. Droplet microfluidics...

We describe protocols for the investigation of surface charge with scanning ion conductance microscopy. The protocol measures current‐voltage curves at positions close to and far from the surface of interest and reports the differential response. The data can be interpreted in terms of rectification ratios, an intuitive quantity for such...

Two specially constructed architectures – nanopore electrode arrays (NEAs) and closed bipolar electrochemical cells (CBEs) offer unique opportunities for electrochemical bioanalysis. CBE devices can be used to couple analytically-useful redox processes occurring in one micro- or nanofluidic cell - the analytical cell - to a variety of optical readouts (fluorescence,...

Droplet microfluidics offers unique advantages for high throughput screening, sensitive assays, and templated synthesis of functional materials. Using pico-liter drops as individual reaction vessels, drop microfluidics ensures high reaction efficiencies even with tiny input material, providing single molecule sensitivity. After performing massively parallelized assays, individual droplets can be screened one...

Engineered nanoparticles are increasingly being incorporated into devices and products across a variety of commercial sectors – this means that engineered nanoscale materials will either intentionally or unintentionally be released into the ecosystem. The long-term goal of the presented work is to understand the molecular design rules that control the...
