🧪 What We Do: Our Research Focus
​
We are developing the next generation of wearable, ingestible, and implantable closed‑loop platforms that enable continuous biochemical monitoring and responsive therapy. Our core innovations include:
-
Continuous biochemical sensing systems, capable of detecting key biomarkers naturally found in bodily fluids.
-
Antifouling sensor coatings and microfluidic architectures to maintain long-term biocompatibility and performance.
-
Energy-autonomous bioelectronics — bioelectronic implants and ingestibles that harvest energy from the body or environment.
-
Closed-loop therapeutic integration, where sensing triggers automated actuation—such as precise drug release or electrical stimulation.
🔬 Opportunities at Min Research Group
​
We welcome graduate students, postdoctoral researchers, undergraduate students, and visiting affiliates from BME, ChemE, MatSE, EE, MechE, or related disciplines. Our group focuses on innovating personalized healthcare through pionoreering closed-loop wearable, ingestible, and implantable platforms for continuous biochemical monitoring and automated therapeutic intervention, featuring advanced sensing, antifouling interfaces, energy-autonomous telemetry, and real-time control systems.​ Interested candidates are encouraged to contact Dr. Min at jmmin@caltech.edu.​​​
