Lab-on-a-chip workshop
2 February, Gothenburg
Lab-on-a-chip workshop: Reaching new horizons with nanotechnology
Nanotechnology is pushing the lab-on-a-chip technology even further. Find out how at this workshop in Gothenburg on 2 February.
Download invitationThe ability to perform small scale laboratory operations using miniaturized devices has many advantages, such as reduced time, greater control of molecular concentrations and interactions, less chemical waste and the possibility for point-of-care analysis. Nanotechnology is pushing this technology even further.
Are you a researcher or company representative interested in lab-on-a-chip solutions? Would you like to interact and network with other experts in this rapidly developing field? Then this workshop is for you.
