Kamlesh Patel's Biography



Kamlesh Patel, R&D Advanced System Engineering and Deployment Manager, Sandia National Laboratories

Dr. Kamlesh D. Patel is research scientist at Sandia National Laboratories-California and currently serves as the manager for the Advance Systems Engineering and Deployment Group. Dr. Patel’s research focus is part of a larger effort at Sandia to develop creative and innovative solutions to challenging and emerging issues in global chemical, biological, and radiological dangers?protecting our nation and troops abroad from such threats. An important element of Dr. Patel’s group is to improve our nation’s ability to anticipate and defend by developing advance concepts platforms for better detection and diagnostic capability to make rapid, real-time decisions. With a background in analytical separation science, coupled to years of experience in microsystems engineering, Dr. Patel has applied microfluidic-based technology and systems engineering to such new frontiers.

As recent outbreaks have shown, effective global health response to emergent infectious disease requires a rapidly deployable, universal diagnostic capability. We will present our ongoing work to develop a fieldable device for universal bacterial pathogen characterization based on nanopore DNA sequencing. Our approach leverages synthetic biofunctionalized nanopore structures to sense each nucleotide. We aim to create a man-portable platform by combining nanopore sequencing with advance microfluidic-based sample preparation methods for an amplification-free, universal sample prep to accomplish multiplexed, broad-spectrum pathogen and gene identification.
