Course Description

This short course will cover fundamental theories and practical aspects of fabricating microdevices and dealing with liquids in tiny confined spaces. The essential differences and design considerations when transferring between nano-, micro-, and macroscale handling of fluids will be discussed. Microfluidics applications are highly multidisciplinary, and several emerging areas will be presented including sample preparation, advanced separation strategies, nucleic acid methods, process monitoring, "-omics" applications, cellular analysis, and biosensors. Students will gain a greater understanding of this imminent wave of related technologies.
