David W. Galbraith, Ph.D.

I have 45 years of research and teaching experience in biotechnology, biological instrumentation, and the analysis of living organisms at the level of single cells.  I am internationally recognized as a pioneer in flow cytometry and cell sorting. I have published over 200 scholarly articles and have made 550 invited presentations at scientific meetings and in academic and industrial settings. I provide my expert opinions and advice spanning the physics and engineering of optical devices, to the biology of living organisms within the animal, plant, and microbial kingdoms. I develop methods of genetic engineering of target organisms to understand and ameliorate disease states, improve diagnoses and treatments, increase agricultural yields of major crops, and monitor threats to biodiversity. I have devised novel devices to inexpensively monitor infectious diseases, examples including Ebola and COVID-19.  My scholarly articles are at the cutting edge of scientific research, notably the interface between experimental biology and analytical approaches based on Artificial Intelligence.
