research
Professor Lal's interests
are in developing concepts, technologies, and models for integrated
microsystems using MEMS fabrication techniques, the linear and nonlinear
effects of ultrasound, and radioactive thin films. His expertise is in MEMS
(including microfludic, microsurgical, and radioactively-powered systems),
physical acoustics, ultrasonic engineering, analog and digital circuit design,
and solid-state electronics. He leads the SonicMEMS group
which is currently developing surgical tools, ultrasonic microfluidic systems,
and integrated power sources. Prof. Lal served as assistant professor in the
Department of Electrical Engineering at the University of Wisconsin-Madison
from 1998 to 2002. He joined the faculty at Cornell University during July of 2002.
Prof. Lal is a
member of the Cornell Nanobiotechnology Center and the Cornell Biomedical
Engineering Department. He is also a member of the American Association
for the Advancement of Science (AAAS), the Institute of Electrical and
Electronics Engineers (IEEE), and the Acoustical Society of America (ASA).
Prof. Lal is currently on leave from Cornell University as Program Manager in the Microsystems Technology Office (MTO) of the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA). |
