About
The science of microfluidics studies the behavior of fluids through micro-channels and the technology of manufacturing microminiaturized devices. These so called, ‘lab-on-chip’ systems have many possible applications beyond portable devices for point-of-care diagnostics, including environmental sampling and genetic analysis. The Drone Diagnostics Lab is working on the application of disruptive discoveries, such as smartphone-based diagnostic platforms, that can, and will, transform the world.
