معرفی
Prof. Dr. Ghulam Destgeer is an Assistant Professor at the Technical University of Munich (TUM), leading the research group 'Control and Manipulation of Microscale Living Objects.' He holds a PhD in Acoustic-Microfluidics from KAIST, South Korea, and conducted postdoctoral research at UCLA's Di Carlo Lab. His expertise includes microfluidic platforms for manipulating micro-objects using acoustic waves, and pioneering 'lab-on-a-particle' technology for rapid single-cell/molecule analysis. Destgeer has received the Brain Korea 21 Plus Postdoctoral Fellowship and multiple Best Paper Awards from international conferences.
