Going from benchtop sensors to in vivo testing is tough. In his final PhD work, John Mack explored using 3D printing to simplify subcutaneous electrode systems. He shared all .stl files to help others get started:

Excited to share new work with David Jenkins on NHC monolayers for biosensing! Phattananawee Nalaoh & Vincent Clark show aptamer-clicking to NHCs is possible. Still facing capacitive & peroxide issues but stronger gold bonding is a big step forward!

Many students I talk to feel alone in their stress and uncertainty about academia. But they’re not. Sharing our stories can be healing. In this editorial, I reflect on the challenges and lessons from building my research career:

🔬 New from our lab:
H₂O₂ generated during NBE sensor interrogation (with reporter methylene blue) drives oligo hydrolysis. We show mitigation strategies + in vivo results with improved stability, no pretreatment or baseline subtraction!

Congrats Dr. John Mack! 🎓
Just defended his PhD in BCMB_JHMI. I am inspired by his contributions: from diving into biosensor biostats to developing novel additive manufacturing for sensor development. Excited for his next chapter @ DEKA R&D! #PhDDefense #Mentorship #Innovation

It’s official: I’ve received tenure at UNC Chapel Hill!
Grateful, excited, and ready to push the frontiers of science with the amazing Tar Heel community. Starting on 07/01

Let’s lead with creativity, innovation, and inclusive excellence.
