This course module is designed for individuals interested in hands-on training in the fabrication of microfluidic devices using the soft lithography technique. This 2 day intensive short course will be structured to assume no prior knowledge of the technologies by the participants. The course agenda is evenly divided between laboratory hands-on sessions, including SU-8 master mold creation using photolithography and PDMS device fabrication in the IEN cleanroom, and supporting lectures.\u0026nbsp; The goal for this course is to impart a basic understanding of soft lithography for microfluidic applications as practiced in academia and industry.\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\u003C\/div\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cdiv\u003E\r\n\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003ETarget Audience:\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\r\nThis short course is open to off-campus researchers from academia, industry and government laboratories\/organizations and is not limited to current Georgia Tech students or IEN users.
