Lab-on-a-Chip Workshop

Presented by The Lurie Nanofabrication Facility

This one-day workshop is designed to introduce researchers to the different technologies used in lab-on-chip systems. Speakers will include U-M faculty and staff members. The workshop is aimed at researchers from academia and industry who are interested in learning about lab-on-chip fabrication. No previous microfabrication experience is required.

The agenda will include lectures on:

• MEMS and microfabrication/micromachining techniques
• Microfluidics and PDMS based fabrication techniques
• Other techniques and their applications to lab-on-chip devices
• LNF capabilities and how to bring a project to the LNF

The workshop will include both classroom lectures and hands-on laboratory activities.

Registration Fees: $200; Reduced rate for academic researchers and students $100.

Include attendance to the lectures and cleanroom lab sessions, lecture/lab notes, breakfast/lunch and credit towards LNF user fees. (50% of the registration fee can be used as a credit towards LNF user fees if the attendee subsequently becomes a user of the LNF)

Food will be provided. Space is limited for the hands-on portion of the program.
