Nader Pourmand

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Nader Pourmand is a Professor of Biomolecular Engineering leading the Biosensors and Bioelectrical Technology Group at the Baskin School of Engineering at the University of California Santa Cruz, Baskin School of Engineering.[1]

He has been published in Cancer Research,[2] PLoS ONE,[3] ACS, and the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.[4]

Pourmand received his PhD at the Karolinska Institute, Stockholm, Sweden.[5] While he was at Stanford, his lab developed the science underlying Ion Torrent, a benchtop next-gen sequencing system (acquired by Life Technologies, then by Thermo Fisher).[6] He has been a cofounder of start-ups Pinpoint Science inc.,[7] BioStinger Inc. (now part of Yokogawa, Japan),[5][8] MagArray Inc.,[9][5] and contributed to others including Nvigen,[10] Ion Torrent,[6] Bioprobix, and Pathogenix.[11]

He has developed technology based on functionalized nanopipettes, which can be used to study genomics and proteomics of individual living cells at nanoscale.[12][13] This nanopipette technology was described in Nature Nanotechnology as a major advance in Single cell genomics and was recognized by the NIH for the development of this technology for interrogating single living cells.[14][15] This same nanopipette technology is the basis for Pinpoint Science Inc's handheld diagnostic platform for detecting microbial pathogens.

Awards
