About
Dr. Roshini Samuel is a leader in the development of accessible molecular diagnostics, with a primary focus on creating low-cost, point-of-care technologies for nucleic acid detection. Her most influential work introduces an innovative enclosed in-gel PCR amplification cassette that revolutionizes sample processing by eliminating the need for complex pumps or valves. This self-contained, disposable device enables multi-target, multi-sample DNA amplification in near point-of-care settings, dramatically simplifying the workflow for raw sample delivery and PCR. With 24 citations, this foundational paper has inspired further advances in platform molecular diagnostics, demonstrating her ability to bridge engineering and biology for real-world impact. Dr. Samuel’s contributions are particularly notable for their emphasis on affordability and ease of use, making advanced diagnostic capabilities more accessible in resource-limited environments. Her work stands as a testament to the power of thoughtful design in transforming laboratory techniques into practical tools for global health.
