On 29th June 2021, IEEE BUBT Student Branch, IEEE Biometrics Council BUBT SB Chapter, IEEE Nanotechnology Council BUBT SB Chapter, and IEEE BUBT Sensors Council BUBT SB Chapter arranged an event about “MEMS and Microfluidics for Bio-applications”.
The speaker of the event, Saakshi Dhanekar is an Assistant Professor, Department of Electrical Engineering, IIT Jodhpur by profession. She is also chairing an IEEE Sensors chapter jointly with Delhi and Rajasthan. She has been awarded the IEEE Young Professional Hall of Fame Award in 2019 in Montreal.
The main reason for the webinar is to introduce the topic “MEMS and Microfluidics for Bio-applications”. It is a process technology used to create tiny integrated devices/systems that combine mechanical and electrical components which have the potential to revolutionize both industrial and consumer products by combining silicon-based microelectronics with micromachining technology. The speaker starts with the topic Micro-fabrication and what it is about. Then she talked about the uses and importance of silicon. She also described the “CZOCHRALSKI method”. Then she briefly explained Bio-sensors and Bio-chips for detection, Microorganisms, the importance of Bio-MEMS, Microfluidics, and many more. The noticeable achievement was that over 90 people gave feedback on the webinar. In total, 120 people joined the webinar and the number of female participants was 15. Through this virtual webinar, the participants got a chance to know about these topics briefly and why it is important for future aspects. And also get a chance to know about Microfluidics, which has been an active research field and an indispensable tool for quantitative analyses of chemicals and biological specimens for decades.
