Carl Adrian Campugan
Higher Degree by Research Candidate
School of Biomedicine
Faculty of Health and Medical Sciences
Carl Adrian Campugan, is a PhD student jointly between the Faculty of Health and Medical Sciences at the University of Adelaide, Australia and the Faculty of Engineering at the University of Nottingham, United Kingdom. His research topic involves the use of trapping techniques to determine how the female gamete's biomechanical property can be used to better understand the health of a fertilized embryo. His research interest focuses on how established non-invasive optical techniques, like the optical tweezers, can be implemented to the reproductive field to better understand the impact of gamete quality on outcomes related to the embryo.
Carl's research involves the use of trapping techniques to detect, assess, and characterize biomechanical properties in the female gamete and investigate how this can be used to better understand the health of a fertilized embryo.
His research interest lies in understanding how non-invasive optical techniques, like the optical tweezers, can be implemented to understand gamete quality.
