Grant: Canada Research Chairs
The University of British Columbia
$200,000.00
Breath Biomarker Discovery and Diagnostics
EF 2024-25
Résumé
My vision is a future where breathing into an inexpensive, handheld device instantly delivers accurate information on your health status. The focus of my CRC application is on building better tools (samplers, microanalytical systems, and informatics) to propel basic breath science (e.g., metabolite origins; therapeutic targets) and clinical breath science applications (e.g., biomarker discovery, translation, and validation). The program will support 20 HQP, including 6 undergraduate students. The program is synergistic with my ongoing work in the clinical biomarker validation space as well as my efforts in trans- and international-capacity building in the diagnostics field.
