[EBT Membership Roster] [EBT Meeting Rosters]

The Enabling Bioanalytical and Biophysical Technologies [EBT] Study Section reviews both hypothesis and non-hypothesis driven applications focused on the development of new bioanalytical and biophysical tools, emerging techniques, and instrumentation. Emphasis is on research that probes the molecular aspects of biological systems using novel technologies or existing techniques that have been enhanced by improving the resolution, sensitivity, throughput, and fundamental underpinnings of these techniques. Specific areas covered by EBT:

• Bioanalytical techniques such as sensors, separations, mass spectrometry, molecular spectroscopy, electrochemistry arrays, microfluidics and lab-on-a-chip, and novel assays.
• Biophysical techniques such as magnetic resonance, optical and electron microscopy 
• Synthesis of novel materials, labels and reagents and surface chemistries developed for use in bioanalytical or biophysical methods, including nanotechnology.
• The feasibility of recently introduced technologies to examine and explore biological systems (for example, proteomics, genomics, metabolomics, sequencing, screening, characterizing macromolecular interactions, or clinical applications) both in vivo and in vitro.
• Software development and (bio) informatics/chemometrics applied to bioanalytical instrumentation, instrumentation control, and interpretation of experimental data.
