Professor Kulinsky designed and taught a week-long course “Fundamental and Applications of Microfluidics” June 25-29, 2018 in conjunction with his Tec de Monterrey colleagues Prof. Gallo and Prof. Perz. The course presented a theoretical basis of microfluidics as well as hands-on fabrication tutorials for lab-on-chip and lab-on-disc microfluidic devices to a group of more than 20 faculty members from Tecnologico campuses. The topics included:
- Course Overview and Introduction to Microfluidics
- Introduction to Fabrication of Fluidic Chips
- Fabrication of PDMS-based Lab-on-a-chip system via Soft Lithography
- Fundamentals of Microfluidics
- Creation of microelectrode-based fluidic systems for Dielectrophoresis
- Data collection for Lab-on-a-chip systems (pressure gradient based, dielectrophoretic, and centrifugal)
- Applications of Centrifugal Microfluidics
Some evenings participants watched soccer games and relaxed over music, songs, and good conversation.
It was a very memorable event.
