About Ricky Spero
I\'m a physicist and entrepreneur in the Triangle.I moved to North Carolina to complete a PhD in biophysics at UNC Chapel Hill. In 2010 I co-founded Redbud Labs with two UNC professors. Building on a MEMS invention incubated at UNC, we\'ve commercialized a technology platform called Redbud Posts, and we\'re using it to build cartridge-ready components that will advance science and improve care.I love hardware-software systems. I love building things with smart people. Most of all, I love crazy ideas and the people that pursue them. Find me at the Frontier campus, microfluidics meetings, and conferences in the life science, diagnostics, and bioprocessing industries.
