Jon M. COOPERProf., Bioengineering, Univ. of Glasgow

This talk will describe the engineering challenges associated with integrating new sensor formats into micro fluidics to provide new analytical platforms. Particular emphasis will be placed on exploring the development of Lab-on-a-Chip and point of care technologies for biological screening and diagnostic sensing applications, particularly associated with the diagnosis of cancer. In the examples to be demonstrated, patient derived samples will be used for both diagnostic and screening technologies.
