Workshop on Integration of Sensors and Electronics in Microfluidics: Challenges and Solutions
March 7-8, 2024 – Leuven, Belgium
Our Galileo technical team was in Leuven, Belgium, for the Workshop on Integration of Sensors and Electronics in Microfluidics: Challenges and Solutions, organized by the Microfluidics Association!
Here are the key takeaways from the workshop:
1) The workshop aimed at bringing together two stakeholder groups in the world of microfluidics: microelectronic sensor fabricators and microfluidics users.
2️) While gaps still exist between these two groups, progress is being made to establish common terminology and mutual understanding of technical capabilities and user needs.
3️) The past years have seen the first ISO microfluidics standards being established, namely on microfluidic device and port geometries. There is a push for further principle standards, namely on metrological aspects, for which input from the whole microfluidics community is being sought.
