Andres Dextre works on tools for detecting and analyzing biological molecules, particularly using CRISPR-based systems like Cas13a to detect RNA (genetic material) for applications such as diagnostics and disease testing. Recent work includes developing light-controlled and multiplexed (multi-target) RNA detection methods, as well as microscopy techniques to study the physical flexibility of biomolecules attached to surfaces.
