Micro and Nanotechnologies for Healthcare

Wednesday, June 23rd 2010

This conference is a result of a global reflection launched by Minalogic in 2009 on the possible contributions of micro and nanotechnologies to the healthcare sector. The objective of this workgroup was to bring together local players to improve existing medical systems, develop new devices and services and allow a broader diffusion of these technologies.

During this conference, many examples of applications of micro nanotechnologies to healthcare will be presented. The presentations will go from basic technologies to complex medical devices, with various topics, such as in vivo fluorescence imaging, integrated microfluidics devices, computer-assisted surgical gesture systems, MEMS sensors for physiological parameters, etc.
