The talk will be focused on a lab-on-a-chip platform for detection of nucleic acid biomarkers from bacteria.  The technique uses no amplification or any enzymatic reactions to lower the cost and to avoid bias.  Instead it uses on-chip sample enrichment and op-chip detection methods to achieve high sensitivity, high specificity, and fast process time.  In addition to POC detection of infectious diseases such as sexually transmitted infectious diseases, the technology is also attractive to quantitative detection such as miRNA analysis.  Besides the device technology, we will also discuss the physical model for a quantitative analysis of the device performance.
