Brief Biography:

Lawrence completed his BSc. in biochemistry at McMaster University. He joined the Li lab in 2009. His current research project focuses on designing a simple and convenient approach to elucidate sequence and structural properties and recognition specificity of aptamers. During his spare time, he enjoys listening to music, reading, and running.

"The word scientist means…to think differently."

Research Interests:

I am interested in creating biosensors using aptamers.
