Abstract

In this seminar, Dr Li will introduce the general concepts and practical examples of microfluidics (MFD), drawing on her experience. She will discuss typical MFD applications, provide an overview of ANFF-Qld’s fabrication and characterisation capabilities, and share examples of collaborations with UQ researchers that have led to impactful research outcomes.
