ポイントオブケア診断アプリケーションのためのマイクロ流体技術： 技術、アプリケーション、研究動向

10月4日 15:00-17:00 in Tokyo, Japan

Training Course on Microfluidics and Point-of-Care Diagnostics.

Presented by Dr. Claudia Gartner - CEO, microfluidic ChipShop GmbH

Date and Time: Wednesday, 4 October 2023 from 15:00 - 17:00

Venue: Hotel Nikko Narita Japan -- Conference Ctr.

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.
