Breathomics Research
Breathomics offers a promising approach for distinguishing airway diseases with overlapping symptoms, such as asthma, bronchiectasis, and COPD. Because these conditions can share clinical features including cough, shortness of breath, wheezing, and airway inflammation, conventional symptom-based evaluation may not fully capture their underlying biological differences. Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) detected in exhaled breath can provide a noninvasive chemical snapshot of metabolic activity, oxidative stress, inflammation, and environmental exposure.

Breast cancer markers for African American women
Breast cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related mortality in African American (AA)
women. We evaluated the serum proteomic profile of AA women with breast
cancer using an integrated proteomic framework with multivariate pattern analysis. Read the paper.
Soft sensor projects
This research develops soft sensor models to predict ethanol and other key product concentrations using easy-to-measure process variables such as temperature, pH, oxidation-reduction potential, and capacitance. These models provide real-time insight into fermentation performance and support improved monitoring and control of bioprocesses. Read more.
