 Core Faculty
Ron Hamelik
Ronald M. Hamelik obtained his M.S. in Embryology from the University of Miami (1974), where he studied birth defects. From 1974 to 1982, he was at the University Of Miami School Of Medicine's Microbiology Department studying the biochemistry of bacterial adhesion. From 1982 until 2001, he worked for Coulter Corporation (later Beckman Coulter Corporation), in the design and development of flow cytometers and flow cytometric applications. He was involved in Coulter's development of the PRISM concept of multicolor analysis, a 90-degree diode light scatter detector, an automated reticulocyte analysis, two automated 4-color lymphocyte analyses, an automated CD34 analysis, and the implementation of full matrix color compensation. In 2001, he returned to the University Of Miami School Of Medicine and joined Dr. Krishan's laboratory in the Pathology Department, where he is in charge of the Analytical Cytometry laboratory.
Lab
Students will have an opportunity to treat drug resistant cells and see the efflux of the drug from the cells by using a flow cytometer to monitor the process.
