Overview

Bringing together researchers and industry participants from both academia and industry, this established congress now in its 8th year, will discuss the innovative developments in the Lab-on-a-Chip (LOAC), Microfluidics, and the Microarrays Spaces.

Presentations will explore the latest advances in the Lab-on-a-Chip and Microfluidics Fields. Focus at this conference will also be given to some of the many applications of Lab-on-a-Chip, from life science research, to taking diagnostics to the point-of-care/point-of-need and body-on-a-chip/organs-on-a-chip. We focus on LOAC device production technologies, novel designs/technologies for manufacture, as well as the key application areas for LOAC from research to diagnostics. There is an Extensive International Perspective at this Conference with Speakers, Poster Presenters, Sponsors, and Exhibitors from the US, Europe, and Asia/Pacific.

Running alongside the conference will be an exhibition covering the latest technological advances and associated products and services from leading solution providers within this field from around the world.

Registered delegates will have access to the co-located and concurrent conference tracks to mix-and-match presentations and maximize networking:

1. Lab-on-a-Chip and Microfluidics: Emerging Themes, Technologies and Applications
2. Lab-on-a-Chip and Microfluidics: Techologies and Commercialization
3. Point-of-Care Diagnostics & Global Health World Congress 2016
4. Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS), Single-Cell Analysis (SCA), Single Molecule Analysis (SMA) & Mass Spectrometry: Research to Diagnostics 2016


There are ample opportunities for networking and this ensures a very cost-effective conference trip.
The Exhibit Hall is Co-Located with the Conference Tracks in the Conference Center for Excellent Networking Opportunities (Collaboration Opportunities, Sales Opportunities for Vendors, as well as Business Development and Partnering Opportunities).  Exhibit Hall is Open all day on September 27 and 28, 2016.
