Science Researcher Update: Spotlight on Meetings, Conferences, and Events

  

Conference - Mumbai, India

  

Miniaturization, requiring use of Microfluidics or Lab-on-a-Chip Technology has proven to have specific advantage in expediting early stages of drug discovery process. Extension of bioassay and cell biology possibilities, better separation techniques, relatively accurate modeling of physiological situations and systematic high-volume testing have all turned out to facilitate drug discovery. The use of Robotic fluid handling with micro total analysis systems (µTAS) integrating biomarker technology has brought paradigm shift in disease diagnosis and drug discovery and development processes.

After the first full conference in Bangalore in September 2013, we at SELECTBIO, are delighted to bring together thought leaders in the field of Microfluidics & Lab-on-a-Chip India in Mumbai, in 2015. The program will consist of moderated sessions and engaging an expert panel on research themes at the core of Microfluidics and Lab-on-a-Chip technology.

Agenda Topics:
• Biomedical Applications of Microfluidics/LOAC:
o Biosensors
o Disease Monitoring & Diagnostics
o Genetics, Epigenetics, Proteomics and Metabolomics
• Developments in Materials and Microfabrication Technologies
• Droplet-based Digital Microfluidics
• Optofluidics and Plasmonic Devices
• Organ-on-a-Chip
• Paper-based Devices in the Developing World
• Single Cell Analysis
