Jesus Espino
Research at Rochester Institute of Technology
Jesus is a fourth-year Biomedical Engineering student at RIT. After joining the MSB lab in January 2025, Jesus's current project aims to achieve separations of live and dead cells (both prokaryotic and eukaryotic) in microfluidic devices.

Hobbies
My hobbies include reading (mostly sci-fi and graphic novels), learning new cooking recipes, watching movies, and playing board games and video games. I also like to stay active through running, swimming, and the occasional hiking trip.
