Description
The Microfluidics Cluster UPV/EHU is a strategic alliance
between two research teams working on Micro- and
Nanotechnologies for Lab-on-a-Chip applications at the
University of the Basque Country.
We focus on applied
and translational research on micro- and nanotechnologies.
Through the combination of microfluidics, sensors and
actuators, we develop Integrated Microsystems with
applications in biomedical diagnostics, environmental
analysis, chemistry, sport science, biology and medicine.
We are a multidisciplinary team comprised by chemists,
biologists and engineers, in close collaboration with sport
and environmental scientists, medical doctors, and industry.
