معرفی
Pelle Ohlsson is a Researcher at Lund University's Department of Biomedical Engineering, working with the Acoustofluidics group. He is also a Profile Area member for both LU Profile Area: Light and Materials and LTH Profile Area: Engineering Health, and an Affiliated researcher at Infect@LU. His research spans biomedical engineering, soil science, and microbiology, focusing on the intersection of microfluidics and biological systems.
Ohlsson's primary research interests include Microfluidics and Acoustofluidics, with applications in soil microbiology, cell separation, and environmental monitoring. His work leverages engineered microenvironments to study microbial communities, fungal behavior, and blood cell separation techniques. The research combines engineering principles with biological applications to develop innovative diagnostic tools and environmental monitoring systems.
Analysis of his recent publications reveals a clear trend toward interdisciplinary research bridging engineering, microbiology, and medical diagnostics. His work on soil chips has evolved to incorporate AI-driven image analysis, while his biomedical research focuses on acoustic cell separation techniques. These two research strands share a common foundation in microfluidic engineering but apply it to distinct biological systems.

Ohlsson actively supervises research students, including Arellano, C. and Mafla Endara, P. M., and collaborates on multiple funded projects. Current projects include 'Impacts of sound on fungal growth and foraging behaviour' (2024-2025), 'AcouSome: Acoustofluidic thin-film actuated chip for exosome separation from blood' (2023-2025), and 'Effects of micro- and nanoplastics on soil microbial activity' (2019-present). His research group utilizes the Soil Chip technology to investigate microbial interactions in controlled microenvironments, advancing both environmental science and biomedical applications.
