University of Southern California
Noah Malmstadt is Professor at the University of Southern California. He received a BS in Chemical Engineering from Caltech and a PhD in Bioengineering from the University of Washington. Following postdoctoral work at UCLA, he joined the Mork Family Department of Chemical Engineering and Materials Science at USC in 2007. Malmstadt is the recipient of a 2012 Office of Naval Research Young Investigator award. His research focuses on microfluidic strategies to facilitate material fabrication and biophysical analysis. He has pioneered the integration of ionic liquids as solvents in droplet microreactors and the application of microfluidic systems to synthesizing biomimetic cell membranes. Microfluidic analytical techniques he has developed include methods for measuring the permeability of cell membranes to druglike molecules and techniques for measuring ionic currents through membrane proteins.

Assembly of microfluidic systems from modular 3D-printed components
enables an innovative and powerful design workflow. While traditional
fabrication approaches require design and fabrication of monolithic
integrated devices, a modular approach allows for design and
optimization of individual system elements. Final system design then
becomes a simple iterative process based on assembling these elements by
hand. An additional strength of a 3D-printed modular approach is the
capacity to seamlessly integrate off-the-shelf electromechanical
components into the modules. We have recently demonstrated integration
of thermal sensors, optical sensors, and electromagnets into 3D-printed
fluidic modules. These integrated components facilitate an array of
tasks including flow rate detection, calorimetry, droplet counting,
bioassay readout, and bead-based separations. Together with strategies
for controlling the surface chemistry of 3D-printed parts and
implementing efficient in-line mixing, these active modules form the
foundation for designing and building complex integrated bioanalytical
systems.
