Our research interfaces between chemistry and biology to try to understand fundamental biological processes at the level of biochemical and biophysical principles. We focus on the following questions：how do cells efficiently and accurately sort all its proteins to the correct subcellular destinations? What are the molecular principles of recognition and regulation that underlie such complex biological phenomena? Our attention currently focuses on a pair of molecular adapters - the signal recognition particle（SRP）and the SRP receptor（SR）- that deliver newly synthesized proteins to particular membrane systems within the cell. This process is responsible for the sorting of all the ER resident and secretory proteins within the cell（accounting for roughly one third of cellular proteins）and is essential to establish and maintain the amazing degree of order and organization required to sustain life.

Research Topics and Interests

Dr. Tai’s research is centered on the Caltech MEMS Laboratory（http://mems.caltech.edu）that he built at Caltech. This is an 8,000 sq. ft. facility completely devoted to MEMS research. This facility has a clean-room lab（4,000 sq. ft）, CAD lab, and a measurement/metrology lab. It is constantly supporting about 30 researchers（graduates, postdocs, visiting scholars and industrial members）to develop innovative MEMS/NEMS devices such as micromotors, microphones, micro scanning mirrors, neural chips, micro relays, micro power generators, etc. Among his works, he has extensively worked on active fluid sensing and control. Successfully developed MEMS devices included pressure sensors, shear-stress sensors, hot-wire anemometers, flexible sensor skins, magnetic actuators, rubber-balloon actuators, etc. Nevertheless, his research always emphasizes MEMS system integration. For examples, his research portfolio includes smart MEMS surface for drag-reduction in turbulence, MEMS for delta-wing aerodynamic control, and MEMS-maneuvered unmanned aerial vehicle（UAV）. For the last 10 years, he has also launched a major effort towards bio/medical devices such as microfluidics, labs-on-a-chip and biomedical implants. His lab has developed the first complete high-performance liquid chromatography on-a-chip for total biochemical analysis. He also has various collaborative research programs to develop cortical, retinal and spinal implants based on a parylene MEMS technology he developed in his lab. He has also engaged in research on circulating tumor cells enrichment and stem cell treatment of age-related macular disease（funded by California Government, CIRM project）. He has published >700 articles and >8,000 citations, including >200 granted and pending patents in the MEMS field（from “Publish and Perish”）. Publications are available upon request.
