His doctoral work focused on the design of active complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) biochips for electrochemical DNA assays. From 2009 to 2010, he worked as a research engineer in integrated circuit and sensor design for the biotechnology start-up Ion Torrent in Guilford, CT (now part of Thermo Fisher Scientific), which commercialized the first semiconductor-based, fully-electronic genome sequencer. In 2011, he joined the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Waterloo where he is now a professor. His research interests include CMOS-integrated electrochemical sensors, CMOS visible-light and X-ray imagers, and the design of analog/mixed-signal integrated circuits for sensor interfaces.
