Held in conjunction with Point-of-Care, Biosensors and Rapid Diagnostics Europe 2023
18 Jun 2023, at 16:00-18:00 in Rotterdam, The Netherlands
Training Course on Microfluidics and Point-of-Care Diagnostics. Presented by Dr. Claudia Gärtner - CEO, microfluidic ChipShop GmbH Date and Time: Sunday, 18 June 2023 from 16:00 - 18:00 Venue: Executive Room -- Hilton Rotterdam -- Rotterdam, The Netherlands
The course will provide a broad overview of microfluidics as an enabling technology for new product development in point-of-care diagnostics (POC). The course will explain the main advantages of using microfluidics technologies, and will cover aspects of product development strategies, manufacturing technologies, application cases, markets as well as aspects of commercialization and latest trends in the academic world. Recent product examples will be presented as well as lessons learned during all stages of the development and commercialization process of microfluidics-enabled POC devices. The course is suitable for scientists, technicians, engineers but also business developers who would like to develop a deeper understanding of microfluidic technologies as key elements for the development of new products in point-of-care diagnostics.
