Presentation at Lab-on-a-Chip Conference 2017

Dr. Matthew Hancock spoke at the Lab-on-a-Chip & Microfluidics World Congress 2017, which took place in San Diego, CA on October 2-4, 2017.  Dr. Hancock's presentation was titled "Modeling and Simulation of Microfluidic Devices."  For microfluidic devices, modeling and simulation can inform the design and integration of common components such as micropumps, manifolds, and channel networks.  Modeling and simulation may also be used to estimate a range of processes occurring within the fluid bulk and near cells.  Dr. Hancock’s presentation addressed how an array of modeling tools such as scaling arguments, analytical formulas, and finite element simulations may be leveraged to address microfluidic device development issues.  Learn more about the conference and about Dr. Hancock’s presentation.
