Zachary Jones is a research scientist focused on developing quantum sensing measurements for biological applications. Originally from Buffalo, NY, Jones attended Ithaca College before earning a PhD in Chemistry at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. His research in Bob Hamers’ group focused on creating new measurement and imaging techniques to better understand the interactions between nanomaterials and biological systems as part of the NSF Center for Sustainable Nanotechnology. As a postdoctoral researcher at Berkeley Lab, Jones developed droplet microfluidics measurements using nitrogen-vacancy (NV) center nanodiamonds. He’s continuing to apply these techniques and others to characterize bio-processes.
