Single protein isolation in Free flow counter-gradient focusing

The free-flow counter gradient focusing technology provides a solution to tackling the problem of separating and collecting large amounts of protein sample. This technology is to be high performance and scalable, and is meant to compete against current batch mode protein separation techniques. The intern will assist in developing the experimental set-up necessary to validate this protein separation system. They will also be responsible for attaining the data necessary to continue towards the goal or rendering this technology scalable. The partner organization AMS is expected to benefit from the developed technology by gaining stake in a technology that they can leverage for their soft robotic and microfluidic applications.
