Anthony "Tony" Guiseppi-Elie, Sc.D., FAIMBE (born October 8, 1954, in Trinidad and Tobago) is noted for his research and commercial development of biologically inspired and chemically responsive polymers that combine hydrogels possessing biologically inspired moieties with one-dimensional organic conductors (conductive polymers and carbon nanotubes). The resulting stimuli-responsive polymers are being developed as smart materials for controlled drug release, biosensors and for use in bionics. Tony is noted for his work on the development of controversial implantable biochips, DNA microarrays, and for his Guiseppi Prediction (...continued progress in the density of molecular recognition features on biochips will approach single molecule detection - by analogy to Moore's Law). Tony is also founder, president and scientific director of ABTECH Scientific, Inc.(), a professor of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering, a professor of Bioengineering and a professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering. As director of the Center for Bioelectronics, Biosensors, and Biochips (), he purses the development of electronic noses, implantable biochips and implantable bio-smart materials for human health applications. He obtained his Sc.D in Materials Science and Engineering from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, his M.Sc. in Corrosion Science and Chemical Engineering from the University of Manchester Institute of Science and Technology and his B.Sc. in Applied and Analytical Chemistry from the University of the West Indies. His work has resulted in the commercialization of a wide variety of biochip substrates used in BioMEMS devices (Lateral Flow Bioassays and Microfluidic Devices) and his implantable biochip is under commercial development at ABTECH Scientific, Inc. Tony is currently a teaching professor at Clemson University in the Department of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering. ==Research== *Differential Gene Expression Using DNA Microarrays (Biochips Thrust Area) (citation needed) *Development of Implantable sensors for Physiologic monitoring (Biochips Thrust Area) (citation needed) *Immobilized Enzyme Bioelectronic Devices (Bioelectronics Thrust Area) (citation needed) *Electronic Nose - Multi-element Array Sensor for VOC Monitoring (citation needed) *Advanced DNA Microarrays (Biochips Thrust Area) (citation needed) *Neuro-biosensors, Neural Materials and NeuroChip (Biosensor Thrust Area) (citation needed) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Anthony Guiseppi-Elie」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
