Lab on a Chip Workshop at the University of Michigan

Lab-on-a-Chip Workshop, June 11th 2009

This is a 1-day workshop held at the Lurie Nanofabrication Facility at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor, MI. It will provide an introduction to MEMS (Micro Electro Mechanical Systems) and other technologies used for lab-on-a-chip devices and systems.

No previous microfabrication experience is required.

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

Full registration fee is $200, and discounted registration for academic researchers/students is $100.

Registration fee includes attendance to the lectures and cleanroom lab sessions, lecture/lab notes, breakfast/lunch and credit towards LNF user fees*.

* credit of 50% of the registration fee, applicable if the attendee subsequently becomes a user of the LNF.
