Background

Xu Han is an accomplished Laboratory Informatics Scientist with an extensive academic background and professional experience in biophysics, plasma physics, and laboratory informatics. With a Ph.D. in Plasma Physics/Plasma Chemistry/Plasma Medicine from the University of Notre Dame, Xu brings a unique interdisciplinary perspective to laboratory informatics.

Before joining SynapticSci, Xu honed their expertise at iVention, where they developed and implemented laboratory systems. With proficiency in laboratory workflows and data management, Xu has contributed to several high-impact projects, including veterinary and materials testing labs. Known for a rigorous scientific approach and technical excellence, Xu is committed to delivering innovative solutions that enhance laboratory efficiency and data integrity.

Bench work

Xu's bench work was in plasma physics and plasma medicine at the University of Notre Dame, building and characterizing atmospheric pressure plasma jets and measuring the DNA damage they cause in plasmid DNA and in oral cancer cells. The dissertation characterizes those jets and their interactions with DNA and human cells.
