Andrew Payne

Andrew studied Engineering Science at the University of Toronto. Formerly, as a visiting student at the MIT Media Lab and at the Harvard Wyss Institute, Andrew and his colleagues designed tools for a networked biology lab, investigated composite nanosystems self-assembled from peptides and nucleic acids, and developed a novel method for physically elongating and positioning strands of DNA. As a student in the Boyden lab, he completed a PhD on inventing and applying new technologies for visualizing the structure and sequence of genomes in situ.
