Computational Team

	Craig LaBoda | Boston University '11 Craig graduated from Boston University last semester with a Bachelors degree in Electrical Engineering. As a 2010 Lutchen Fellow at BU, Craig studied the use of DNA microarrays for microfluidic disease diagnosis, as well as the capturing and organization of DNA origami. This fall he will enter Duke University’s Electrical Engineering PhD program where he will study DNA self-assembly in Professor Chris Dwyer’s Self-Assembled Systems Group. Craig loves shredding guitar and watching terrible horror films. Notebook | Website | LinkedIn
