This course module is designed for individuals interested in hands-on training in the fabrication of microfluidic devices using the soft lithography technique. This 2 day intensive short course will be structured to assume no prior knowledge of the technologies by the participants. The course agenda is evenly divided between laboratory hands-on sessions, including SU-8 master mold creation using photolithography and PDMS device fabrication in the IEN cleanroom, and supporting lectures.\u0026nbsp; The goal for this course is to impart a basic understanding of soft lithography for microfluidic applications as practiced in academia and industry.\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003ETarget Audience: This short course is open to off-campus researchers from academia, industry and government laboratories\/organizations and is not limited to current Georgia Tech students or IEN users. Anyone who is interested in starting research in the area of microfluidics or PDMS device fabrication is invited and strongly encouraged to participate.\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cdiv\u003E\r\n\u003Cp\u003EAgenda :\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003ESeptember the 21st\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003E9:30AM: Registration and Refreshments\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003E10:00AM - 10:50AM: Introduction to Microfluidics\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003E10:50AM - 11:00AM: Break\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003E11:00AM - 12:00PM: Soft Lithography Methods of Fabrication\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003E12:00PM - 1:00PM: Lunch\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003E1:00PM - 2:00PM: Photolithography for SU-8 Master Molds\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003E2:00PM - 5:00PM: Hands-On Session 1 - SU-8 Master Molds Fabrication\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003ESeptember the 22nd \u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003E9:00AM - 10:00AM: Bioapplications in Microfluidics\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003E10:00AM - 12:00PM: Hands-On Session 2 - PDMS Device Fabrication Part I\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003E12:00PM - 1:00PM: Lunch\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003E1:00PM - 4:00PM: Hands-On Session 3 - PDMS Device Fabrication Part II\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\u003Cstrong\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/strong\u003E4:00PM - 5:00PM: Project Consultations\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/div\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cdiv\u003E\r\n\u003Cp\u003EContact: Dr. Paul Joseph, Ph.D. - Principal Research Scientist\u003Cbr \/\u003E\r\n\u003Ca href=\u0022mailto:paul.joseph@ien.gatech.edu\u0022 style=\u0022color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\u0022\u003Epaul.joseph@ien.gatech.edu\u003C\/a\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\r\n(404)-894-3360\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003E\u003Ca href=\u0022http:\/\/events.r20.constantcontact.com\/register\/event?oeidk=a07ee434rzu2dc75bb3\u0026amp;llr=m48bm8rab\u0022\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003ERegister Here\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/a\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\u003C\/div\u003E\r\n\u003C\/div\u003E\r\n","summary":null,"format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EThe course agenda is evenly divided between laboratory hands-on sessions, including SU-8 master mold creation using photolithography and PDMS device fabrication in the IEN cleanroom, and supporting lectures.\u0026nbsp;
