Next-generation prototyping for microfluidics and lab-on-chip research and education
Synopsis of project aims:
The intent of this project is to:
- ascertain which technologies are fundamentally best suitable for microfluidic prototyping and manufacturing,
- generate engineering models and designs that enable the creation of system(s) that are safe and suitable for university researchers,
- realize a first generation prototype system that meets a critical set of researchers needs while enabling EHS to assess and plan for safe use of the technology and the policies/procedures that will govern the integration of this technology on campus.
