Tony Huang, writer of a series of Lab on a Chip Focus review articles, has been awarded a 2013 Faculty Scholar Medal by his institution, Penn State University. This Medal is awarded in recognition of his outstanding research in the area of microfluidic engineering, in particular acoustofluidics. His most recent work on optoacoustic tweezers is available to read in Lab on a Chip:
Optoacoustic tweezers: a programmable, localized cell concentrator based on opto-thermally generated, acoustically activated, surface bubbles
