## Abstract

PROJECT SUMMARY
Over the past twenty-five years, there has been tremendous growth in the development of lab-on-a-chip
technologies for clinical, environmental and biological applications. These devices are constructed using
fabrication technologies that were originally developed to produce integrated circuits. Similar to integrated
circuits, these devices can integrate several different bioanalytical processes into a single platform only a few
centimeters in size. Microfluidics have used for many applications in biomedical research, from analyzing the
contents of single cells to mimicking the complex environments of human organs to better understand cell-cell
interactions. The Microfabrication and Microfluidics Core provides the resources and personnel for the production
of micro- and nano-scale devices that are used by project investigators for their studies. Equipment and training
are available to investigators for the fabrication of devices for biomedical, biophysical, and bioanalytical studies
related to disease pathways.
