Helmut H. Strey

Helmut H. Strey is an Associate Professor in the Department of Biomedical Engineering at Stony Brook University. His research focuses on micro- and nanotechnologies for quantitative biology, including single-cell analysis, cancer metabolism modeling, and functional MRI data analysis. He holds academic appointments since 2008 and has pioneered technologies like tumor-on-a-chip and optical decoders for translation stages.

Education: PhD in Biophysics (Technical University München, 1993), postdoctoral training at NIH (1994-1998). Awards include the NSF CAREER Award (2000-2005), Dillon Medal (2003), and Weston Visiting Professorship (2020).

Research interests span cell-to-cell variability, Warburg effect in cancer, and Bayesian analysis of time-series data. His lab develops tools for 3D tumor microenvironments, MRI-compatible drug delivery systems, and biomimetic neural circuit models.

Teaching includes advanced numerical methods in biomedical engineering, quantitative biology, and biomolecular analysis. Active in open hardware projects, including microfluidics controllers and IoT devices for health monitoring.
