Welcome to my academic website! My name is Hayley Lindsay, and I am a researcher in the Department of BioEngineering at the University of Washington. My work lies at the intersection of biological engineering, microfluidic technologies, and chemical toxicology. I am deeply passionate about leveraging engineering principles to address complex health challenges, ranging from developing accessible, point-of-care diagnostic tools to evaluating the impact of environmental chemicals on cellular energy production.

Throughout my research journey, I have focused on designing practical, technology-driven solutions for biomedical applications. My past projects include developing novel magnetic and mechanical mixing strategies—such as handheld orbital devices—to improve sample capture and processing from biofluids in low-resource settings. Additionally, my work has explored toxicology through high-throughput respirometric screening to characterize mitochondrial toxicants within large chemical libraries.
