\"device<\/p>\n

Microfluidics devices are critical for understanding and controlling fluid flow on the micrometer scale. Applications include portable sensors for point-of-care analysis, particle and cell sorting, nanoparticle synthesis, and organ-on-chip systems. This short course will introduce the techniques behind the fabrication and testing of microfluidic devices through a blend of lectures and hands-on experiences in the VINSE cleanroom. The course will cover microfabrication and microfluidics, photolithography, soft lithography, microfluidic device design for photomasks, and microfluidic device applications. During the course, students will fabricate a PDMS-glass microfluidic device inside the VINSE cleanroom with sessions on SU-8 mold fabrication, PDMS mixing and pouring, device assembly, and device testing. No prior knowledge of these technologies is required from the participants.<\/p>\n

There is a cap of 12 people in the course; people who register after that cap will be added to the waitlist.<\/p>\n

Cost<\/strong> \u2013 $150 Vanderbilt Users; $150 External Academic and Non-Profit Users; $600 Industry and For-Profit Users<\/p>\n

Time<\/strong> – June 20 & 21, 2024<\/p>\n
