Since 2005, Aaron has been a Canada Research Chair at the University of Toronto, with a primary appointment in the Department of Chemistry and cross-appointments in the Institute of Biomedical Engineering and the Donnelly Centre of Cellular and Biomolecular Research. Aaron is Editor-in-Chief of the journal Lab on a Chip, is a Director of the Chemical and Biological Microsystems Society (CBMS), and is a founding member of the Centre for Research and Applications in Fluidic Technologies (CRAFT).

When not in the office or lab, Aaron enjoys spending time with his family (Sabreena, Violet, and Jack). The family has always shared Aaron's enthusiasm for chips, including their dearly departed lab/mix dog, Banting.
