Research summary
AI-generated

Ana Pascual-Garrigos works on developing low-cost tools for detecting biological targets such as pathogens, proteins, and nucleic acids (the genetic material DNA/RNA). Her recent work includes CRISPR-based colorimetric biosensors (tests that change color to indicate a result) for detecting bacteria like Salmonella, and open-source instruments for making biological analysis more accessible and affordable. This research sits at the intersection of engineering, biosensing, and microbiology.
