Annual Symposium Synopsys
Micro- and nanofluidic technologies have experienced a rapid development over
the past few years. They find applications in such areas as Micro Total Analysis
Systems, microelectronics cooling, e-paper, or microreaction devices, some of
which are expected to make a considerable economic impact in the near future.
Furthermore, nanotechnology often requires handling of molecules in liquid
phase, so microfluidics can be regarded as an enabling technology providing a
platform for manipulations occurring at even smaller length scales.
Compared to microelectronics, the design process for micro- and nanofluidic
systems is in its infancy, and standard technological building blocks and unit
operations are largely missing. The development of a corresponding design
methodology requires the development of modeling and simulation tools as well as
experimental procedures for validation and testing. The aim of this symposium is
to give an overview of current trends in micro- and nanofluidics, with special
emphasis on approaches taking steps towards a design methodology.
Over the last eight years, the Nanotech and MSM Conference Series has developed
an incredibly strong Micro, Nano & Bio Fluidics Technical Community. The
Nanotech 2005 saw over 250 papers submitted into these areas. Consequently, the
Nanotech Conference invites you to submit your technical contribution related to
all research, design, simulation, fabrication, application and commercialization
of Micro & Nano Fluidics for the Nanotech 2005 Conference and Trade Show.

Submit Proposal or Comment to Committee Chair
We encourage you to participate and to submit your interest as either an
Scientific Committee Member or to organize a Scientific Committee*. The
NSTI will provide the infrastructure for each Industrial Committee to
organize and present a focused Symposium at the annual Nanotech
Conference and Trade Show (Nanotech 2008,
Boston, Massachusetts, June 1-5, 2008). Details will be provide upon approval of
proposal.
* All submissions will be reviewed by the NSTI Scientific Committee
Chairs and a timely response will be issued.
