Richard Chasen Spero's Biography


Richard Chasen Spero, CEO, Redbud Labs

Richard Spero is co-founder and CEO of Redbud Labs, where he leads both commercial activities and the company’s systems engineering team. He is a co-inventor of Redbud Posts, a MEMS chip covered with biomimetic cilia. Redbud Posts enable novel methods for fluid processing at the microscale, including pumping, mixing, cell sorting, and analyte isolation. This technology is used by point-of-care diagnostic device developers to improve assay speed, reliability, and performance. Prior to founding Redbud Labs, Dr. Spero earned his PhD in Physics at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, where he studied blood clot rheology and developed novel systems for magnetic manipulation and time-dependent high content screening.

Despite decades of innovation, there is no accepted standard for isolation of circulating biomarkers in microfluidic systems. This creates a problem for developers of new biomarker assays and liquid biopsy tests. Traditional sample prep methods such as ultracentrifugation, affinity sorting with magnetic beads, or micro-filtration are acceptable for use in a discovery environment. However, these methods do not translate effectively to microfluidic cartridges, so promising assays must be completely re-implemented when moving from the bench to an integrated system. We present our work on a high-performance sample prep method for circulating biomarkers that translates easily from the bench to a microfluidic cartridge.
