Research Interests

Dr. Saddow's research at the nexus of material science and biomedical engineering works to improve existing biomedical devices by harnessing the properties of bio- and hemo-compatible silicon carbide (SiC) materials to allow for new and improved in-vivo medical devices. He is an expert in SiC CVD, characterization and device fabrication. 


Biography

Dr. Saddow holds a Ph.D. from the University of Maryland-College Park and is currently a guest researcher in the Molecular Imaging Branch, National Cancer Institute (NIH) where he is applying SiC nanoparticles to treat deep-tissue cancer. Prior to joining USF he was a senior electronics engineering (GS-14) at the Army Research Laboratory working on mitigating the effects of directed-energy weapons.
