Microfluidic Devices on Medical Research
Posted by Nazım Yılmaz on

What is microfluidics? It's a technology that will revolutionize biology as well as medical diagnostics. How through the manipulation of biological samples and miniaturized devices? The aim is that many operations currently performed in biological labs could be miniaturized and integrated into a single chip...
Introduction to Applications of BioMems
Posted by Nazım Yılmaz on

MEMS or microelectromechanical systems use micro-sized components as sensors transducers and actuators. These are currently found in cars, gaming devices, smartphones, and environmental testers. Many of these same MEMS are used in the medical field, for example, the MEMS and neural sensors found in smartphones are also found in pacemakers...
