Nanofabrication Center
University of Minnesota

This two-day hands-on workshop will provide an understandable overview of microfluidics for biomedical applications.  It is intended for those who might be interested in becoming involved in the microfluidics field, but need a basic outline of what is possible and how the devices are designed and built.  A hands-on component will get the participants in the lab where they will build some basic microfluidic structures.  Principles and software will be introduced to familiarize the participants with the design of more complex devices.  Also, many of the current technology applications will be reviewed.  The course will be taught by some of the leading researchers and educators in the field.
